Ashley Cordova is dead. Scott McGrath, a veteran investigative journalist wants to know why. The reason why the death of this beautiful, young woman has piqued his interest so much is because of who her father is. He is Stanislas Cordova, the world famous director of strange cult/horror films that hasn't been seen publicly in over thirty years. The last time McGrath got involved with Cordova he lost his marriage, child, and career. This time he might lose everything else. With the aid of two strangers, McGrath takes a strange and psychedelic journey where not everything in front is real and what is real is more horrifying than anything that Cordova has put on screen.

Nope. No thanks. Overly long, confusing for the sake of it, and then for the supernatural element of plot - which I was just about believing in, by the way - to be revealed as a load of hodge podge??! No. I can't stand Scott either.
Would happily read a Nora and Hopper spin off however, they seemed cool. Too much Scott, too many words, not enough action / suspense.
Also the ending was WHACK.
Review: Night Film Thanks to painsomnia, I have spent many darkened hours this week listening to this novel, expertly and deliciously read by Jake Weber. What an odd, previous gift to receive from physical pain.
Deadly, sovereign, perfect
Dario Argento's Suspiria
screams and bright red birds, and astounding hints of hope, as the sun can, in an instant, christen the blackest sea
Dario Argento's Tenebrae
the edge of the end
