1 5 y separately published work icon The Boys' Club Wendy Squires , North Sydney : Bantam Books , 2009 Z1568004 2009 single work novel 'Journo Rosie was a struggling new mum in a claustrophobic marriage when she was granted what she thought was a rare interview with the most powerful man in Australian television. Instead, he offered her a job. Too flattered to turn it down, Rosie became the Director of Publicity at Network Six - just as the network took a dive in the ratings. Now fighting fires and copping abuse are Rosie's daily fare, as she deals with the foul-mouthed misogynistic boss of the station, Big Keith; coke-snorting newsreaders; a dippy head of drama; and Simon 'The Darkness' Nash, the dementor who's been put in charge of light entertainment. Mopping up spills at 'Stalag Six' is crushing Rosie's spirit and pushing her over the edge, physically and emotionally. Something has to give. And it does.' (Publisher's blurb)
