TRAILER: https://vimeo.com/ SYNOPSIS: Private Detective Roland Drake has fallen on hard times in a harsh world. He's being evicted from his office and disgraced by a missing person case, which has ruined him in the public eye and with the police. It seems like it's all over for him, until redemption walks in… with curves. The owner of those curves is a sexy, dark-haired beauty named Katherine Montemar. She needs his help! The chemistry is immediate and her concern for the disappearance of her family members pulls him into her case… and into bed. Drake wakes up to her missing, with a pool of blood where she used to lie. After a nervous encounter with his one-time partner in investigations, the equally skilled but unscrupulous Lew MacDonald, Drake is confronted by Katherine's blonde sister, Jennifer, who knows more than she should about everything and blackmails him into helping her. They both have secrets from each other and the world, but their destiny becomes entwined in the dark descent into her universe, which is violently coming apart. This leads them on a hunt for a priceless gem and into world peeled back to reveal a twisted family and the immoral underbelly of human nature. Dogged by the corrupt police in the form of Detective Tate and by a dangerously interested Lew MacDonald, Drake must navigate a sinister world of lies, betrayal, and murder with the menagerie of seedy characters that appear in Jennifer's life. Roland and Jennifer slip deeper and deeper into their doomed love story. Even Drake might not be able to tell right from wrong anymore at the shocking conclusion, which could destroy him, Jennifer, and bury all the mysteries forever."
