One Hundred Names

A series of problems haunts the talented journalist Kitty — unverified information leads to a grand scandal and results in her dismissal from television, her boyfriend leaves her, her best friend dies, and her mentor leaves her a list of 100 names. Kitty begins an investigation, meeting with each of these 100 people and discovering their stories.
“Every single person in the world has their own story to tell. Every ordinary person has an extraordinary story. People think that they are not remarkable, that their life is mundane and boring, that because they are not written about in headlines, they don’t receive international awards and don’t perform heroic deeds, but in reality, everyone does something good, something amazing, some brave act, something to be proud of. Every day — and no one notices it. That’s what should be written about. About unsung heroes, about people who don’t even consider themselves heroes, they just do what needs to be done. Everyone has their own story.” (Cecelia Ahern)
