This is a Scottish tv series that has two seasons. Johnson (Dear Frankie), Morrissey (TWD), Armstrong (Robin Hood), and Capaldi (Dr. Who) all star. IMDb writes, "
Set in Glasgow in 1982, Paddy Meehan is a young girl in a world of men; a feisty copy boy in the sexist, hard-boozing, cutthroat world of journalism. Paddy dreams of being an investigative reporter, and she grabs the opportunity when a young boy, Brian Wilcox, is kidnapped and found murdered. Paddy sees connections to a year-old crime that nobody else sees and she is determined to make it her story. But when Paddy crosses the line, she becomes outcast from her devoutly Catholic family and puts the lives of her colleagues, as well as her own, at risk. The closer she gets to the murderer, the closer she gets to murder; and the price of achieving her dream will prove greater than she can ever imagine." ALL in all, I say: SEE IT - I watched it on Acorn TV
Turns out it was a book before it was a tv series. This is what season one is based on.
This book - second in the series - is the basis for season 2 of the tv series.
I have ordered the third book - since there isn't a tv series based on it - I will have to read it.
