Henry Hartwell seemed to realize he'd gone off-topic and quickly brought the conversation back.
"I've gotten a little sidetracked. Anyway, just remember, we journalists have a mission: to take the lead in guiding public opinion in the right direction.

He spoke casually, but Claire Sinclair listened intently, taking his every word to heart. She silently vowed never to make those mistakes again.
She was completely unaware that someone was standing just outside the archives.
Phoebe Lockwood stood at the door, overhearing every word of their conversation.
