âDevastating . . . a masterly fable, told with insight, wit, and welcome venom . . . this is Hollywood Hell.ââClive Barker
Alan White is a hot young writer-producer looking for the one megahit every Hollywood writer dreams about. He thinks heâs found it with a new TV show called The Mercenary. The network has never seen anything like it. Sex. Violence. Nudity. This time theyâre taking it to the max and the Nielsen ratings are shooting through the roof. Alan couldnât be happier. Until the morningâs headlines start to read like a rerun of last nightâs episode. Until The Mercenary begins to take on a terrifying life of its own. Until it becomes chillingly clear that Alan must cancel his creationâbefore it cancels him.
