Cold War correspondent / Nathan Hale.

Hale, Nathan, 1976- (author,, artist.).

Summary:
A good reporter will do anything to shed light on the truth. When the North Korean army crossed the border with Soviet tanks in 1950, it was war. Marguerite Higgins, a reporter with the New York Herald Tribune, was there when the communists captured Seoul. She fled with the refugees heading south, but when the bridges were blown over the Han River, she was trapped. Still, she reported on everything she saw of the invasion and the war, risking her life in one dangerous situation after another and even refusing to abandon her post when she was ordered to leave because she was a woman. She wouldn't let anything stop her from getting a good story!
