Stephen King meets Billy Wilder (especially the director's darkly cynical film Ace in the Hole, starring Kirk Douglas) in this smart and stylish debut thriller from screenwriter, cartoonist, and art director Martin Schenk. In an attempt to cash in on some national publicity, a desperate couple in Wishbone, Kansas, stage a terrifying "accident" involving their young daughter. It backfires, bringing down a storm of retribution on the family and the town. Not surprisingly, the screen rights to Schenk's extremely cinematic book have been sold.
