War reporting for cowards / Chris Ayres

Ayres, Chris
War reporting for cowards / Chris Ayres [A]. -- New York : Atlantic Monthly, 2005

Chris Ayres is a small-town boy, a hypochondriac, and a neat freak with an anxiety disorder. Not exactly the picture of a war correspondent. He's a twenty-seven-year-old reporter for The Times of London living in Los Angeles, and the only thing he cares to be embedded in is celeb-studded after-parties. But somehow, he has a habit of ending up in the wrong place at the wrong time, whether it's a few blocks from the World Trade Center on September 11 or one cubicle over from an anthrax attack at the New York Post. When his boss asks him if he would like to go to Iraq, he doesn't have the guts to say no.
