Thriller
A disgraced journalist.
The scoop of a lifetime.
If it doesn't redeem him…
It'll kill him.
It looks like just another car crash: a head-on collision
on a lonely stretch of desert highway that leaves one
driver dead. But Tom Valle, the local newspaperman
assigned to the story, is damned good at spotting lies.
And for Valle, once a star reporter at America's most
prestigious daily, this so-called accident may be just the
ticket he needs to resurrect his career and get him out of
the aptly named town of Littleton, California, for good. Yet as Valle eagerly starts investigating, he finds
himself the only one who cares about getting the story
right. As he starts checking facts, and unveiling lie
after lie, he finds himself completely alone-and
negotiating a dark trail of corruption, cover-ups, fraud,
and murder that stretches back for decades. The more he discovers, the closer he gets to the heart of
a conspiracy that threatens to destroy him. From a seedy
after-hours bar in L.A. to a remote cabin in the woods to
the dark corridors of a psychiatric ward, Valle is
desperately seeking redemption in the truth. But, as the boy who cried wolf so many times before, will
anyone believe him?
