The Franklin Affair
Danny Says
Bet you did not know that the host of “Newshour” on PBS and the moderator of several Presidential debates is also a novelist. This is actually Lehrer’s 15th book, but it is quite different from his previous works. Too many people get their history from the mass media, and I got a kick out of this mystery/thriller that examines the fine lines of plagiarism with great comic effect. It made me want to become a Benjamin Franklin groupie.
