Storyline:
She thought she was writing the truth.
She didn’t know she was signing her own death warrant.
Lucy, a savvy but struggling PR consultant, accepts an unusual job: to ghostwrite the memoir of a convicted serial killer infamous for a string of brutal murders.
But as Lucy delves deeper into the killer’s story, inconsistencies and unanswered questions emerge—hinting at a larger conspiracy involving corrupt officials, false confessions, and hidden agendas.
The more truth she uncovers, the deadlier her life becomes.
Soon, Lucy isn't just telling a story—she’s living inside one, as threats mount against her and her family, forcing her to decide how far she’s willing to go to expose the truth… and survive.
