Summaries
Summary from a distributor, Agent With Style:
Small town science teacher Blair Sandburg finds himself caught up in a world unlike he's ever known when he inherits a huge fortune from his uncle and must travel to Cascade to manage his new empire. Unbeknownst to him, reporter Jim Ellison is determined to meet him and get the behind-the-scenes scoop on him. Having read Blair's thesis, he pretends to be Jim Elliott, a Sentinel in need of a Guide, and Blair is happy to help. While Blair and Jim become close as Jim realizes he really is a Sentinel, the reporter in him, publishing under J.E. Ellison, continues to write nasty article after article on the newly-rich country mouse in the big city. By the time Jim realizes he's in love with Blair, he's made Blair out to be an imbecile in the paper -- but he's determined to tell Blair the truth. Will this destroy their fragile, newly-formed relationship? And how can Jim prove in a court of law that Blair isn't incompetent and a danger to himself, when his own printed words are what unscrupulous lawyer Lee Brackett plans to use to commit Blair to an insane asylum and gain control of his fortune?
