Description

If there's one thing Joan Dixon knows about herself, it's that she is a damn good journalist.

But when she is laid off from yet another soon-to-be-shuttered newspaper - and even the soulless, listicle-writing online jobs have dried up - she is left with few options.

Closer to 40 than 30, single, living with her parents again, Joan decides she needs to reinvent herself.

She goes to work as a junior copywriter at Bloom, a tech startup where her bosses are all a decade younger and snacks and cans of fizzy water flow freely. Joan has a steady paycheck and a stable job for the first time in years.

She befriends a group of misfit coworkers and even begins a real relationship, after years of false starts.

But once a journalist, always a journalist, and as Joan starts to poke beneath Bloom's bright millennial surface, she realizes that she may have accidentally stumbled into the scoop of her lifetime.

Is she willing to throw away her fresh start for the sake of the story?
