Freeze Frame

Bob Christopher is Los Angeles Channel Three television-news action reporter. His beat is the little peoplethe ones who get pushed around, find themselves in god-awful messes, and produce human interest for the insatiable maw of television. But this story was different from the first, when a tiny old lady told Christopher about the bulldozers that had leveled her home without reason or warning. That was ugly enough. What happened to the old lady a little while later was even nastier. And suddenly Bob isnt dealing with the little people any more. He finds himself in deep with big-time politics, a giant oil corporation, a group of wild American Indians, and a high-priced hookerall out to make him a corpse before he can report the news.
