Spindoc
From the back cover: Venture Silk is a spindoc. A liar-for-hire who writes tomorrow's headlines. When a space shuttle crashes, or an alien virus escapes quarantine, Silk manipulates the data for public consumption. He's good at his job. And the company is good to him. But when his lover is murdered, and Silk becomes the target of spies and assassins, the spindoc must cut through a web of deception to find the one thing he's never worried about before: The truth.
