S6: An RB McGehee Scoop


S6: An RB McGehee Scoop
By TS Westbrook
Genre:-Ecological Thriller
Pages:-264
Publisher:-Leamington Books
Blurb:-The Red Cross is on a humanitarian mission to locate missing oil worker Calum MacKenzie.
 RB McGehee, the second-tier reporter with Global Press's two-man Edinburgh bureau, files a couple of paragraphs for the US wire agency and expects to hear nothing further.
 There are in any case bigger fish to fry: Scotland has unveiled unilateral carbon reduction measures, a diplomatic hoo-ha with Norway  threatens to escalate into what the locals would call a proper stooshie, and Frankfurt HQ is cracking down on expenses.
 The story, however, refuses to go away. And McGehee-risking life, love and career-is entangled in a desperate race against time to solve the riddle of what happened to the experiment drilling platform Sligachan 6.

My Review:- With Eco being talked about a lot at the minute in politics, news and general life, there were parts of the book that did make me stop and think. Do we really know what's going on behind closed doors? McGehee is our main character, working as a report for Edinburgh newspaper. He works on a report of an oil worker from Sligachan 6 platform in Arctic going missing, a disagreement with Norway, these are a few things which needs to be looked into further and that is what McGehee does, he keeps going to find out the truth.
 Even though it was a bit slow to start, it was worth reading on as it becomes very interesting. I did like the writing style of the author and would like to read more books about McGehee.
