Acclaimed screenwriter John Fusco’s thriller follows the
exploits of Louie Mo, once Hong Kong’s greatest stuntman
turned Los Angeles knee-breaker, as his latest target
unexpectedly casts him in the role of a
lifetime.
Leaving behind a successful career as a
stunt double in Hong Kong to escape entanglements with the
Chinese mafia, Louie Mo now makes his living in Los Angeles
as a hired knee-breaker, putting fear into the hearts of
people reneging on payments to investors. Troy, an aspiring director with NYU credentials and
encyclopedic movie knowledge, is beginning to realize that
he’s made a deal with the devil by agreeing to direct a film
for producer Avi Ghazaryan. When Avi’s sketchy investors
hire Louie to scare Troy into finishing their movie, Troy’s
reverence for film and keen eye save him from a beating when
he recognizes Louie Mo as the stunt man extraordinaire he
once was and begs Louie to take the lead role in the movie
based on Troy’s own pet screenplay. For Louie Mo, this chance at redemption might be his last.
As his past catches up with him and his body becomes ever
more broken down, he teams up with Troy in a race against
the clock—and the bad guys—to pull off an impossible film of
epic proportions. Dog Beach is a fast-paced, smart, and hilarious
thrill ride. Equal parts dark satire and high-velocity
action novel, it's perfect for fans of Elmore Leonard and
Don Winslow.
