Reed Karaim worked in the Washington bureau of Knight-Ridder Newspapers for eight years. In 1992, he covered the Democratic presidential campaign from April through the election. He lives in Washington, D.C.
IF MEN WERE ANGELS held out the promise of being a true rarity in novels about journalists and political intrigue. Working from a solidly believable plot, Reed Karaim tells the story of Cliff O'Connell, a young Washington correspondent who finds himself in the all-too-common situation of becoming a fan of the politician he has been assigned to cover. Torn between a journalist's unwritten oath to seek the truth and allowing a thoroughly decent man to ascend to the nation's top office, the book charts O'Connell's moral and ethical dilemmas in exhaustive detail. Despite an often ponderous writing style and a dreadfully hackneyed plot twist at the end, IF MEN WERE ANGELS is an enjoyable and engaging story for anyone who enjoys fiction about politics. J.B.B.
