"From New Yorker writer and Thurber Prize-winning author of Truth in Advertising comes a wry yet tenderhearted father-daughter story that looks at family, marriage, and fame through the lens of a popular TV anchor's public fall from grace" --,Provided by publisher.

Network TV anchor Ted Grayson has reported time and time on the public downfall of those at the top. He just never imagined that it would happen to him.

His years of constant travel and his big-screen persona have frayed his family relationships: Ted is estranged from his wife, Claire, and his adult daughter, Franny, a writer for a popular website. When her boss suggests Franny confront Ted in an interview, she has to decide whether to use his loss as her career gain. -- adapted from jacket
