The Knock — Peter Taylor

SMALL time journalists with big time ambitions weave a trail of distress, mayhem, double standards, dirty tricks and binge drinking through the community they serve. The Knock is a work of fiction, set in the north of England, extrapolated from the realities of the work of front line regional newspaper news reporters and the sort of situations they face on a daily basis and the sort of people they are, and can become, when dealing with these situations.
