Description
'The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo' meets 'Eyes Wide Shut' in this twisted, psychological thriller about a screenwriter's perilous descent into an age-old Hollywood cult.
For years, rumors have circulated amongst the Hollywood elite, whispers of a mysterious symbol veiled beneath the glitz and glamor of this town—XIIX. Many believe that the symbol leads the seeker to greatness, to golden statues, and unparalleled riches. The chance to become a Hollywood god. Others claim that the symbol brings tragedy and destruction upon those it finds. That it is a mark from the devil himself.
Good or evil, I’ll let you decide.
I have the story of a lifetime, a wild conspiracy that will bring this town to its knees. If only I live long enough to tell it.
FULLY SNYPOSIS:
Actress Savannah Beck is missing, and the celebrity tabloid InsideJuice.com is eager for the scoop. Short on staffers, the site assigns intern Conner Daniels to follow up on a peculiar email from renowned screenwriter Kohl Reynolds, claiming to have only two days before a shocking secret goes with him to the grave.
Desperate for his big break, Conner tracks down the tormented writer, who has recently spiraled into drug-addled obscurity. But when the truth begins to emerge, and Reynolds becomes the primary suspect in Beck’s disappearance, the interview becomes the center of a national media circus.
To uncover the truth, Reynolds must reveal a lifetime of heartbreak and fame, of drugs and money, of muses and great loves, of powerful symbols and evil shadows hiding among the Hollywood elite. In the end, Kohl’s testimony could uncover a century-old conspiracy, if only Conner can find the courage to confront his own mysterious connection to the screenwriter—and reveal the secret to the world.
