"Sordid Tales From the Land of Blood & Honey"

SYNOPSIS:

When a legendary master of the macabre... a virtual recluse for years...

opens his home to the finalists of his rarely held writing competition a

group of aspiring authors f lock to him on almost no notice. What should be a

dream come true doesn't take long to turn nightmarish. Though the author's

witty and rebellious daughter does her best to settle their nerves and boost

their confidence they quickly find that it is the author's brutal judgment

that looms large here. The judgment of a ruthless predator of ambition who

knows exactly how to use his storied words to kill a dream.

When emotions fray and the line between critique and cruelty thins to a

razor's edge, the room of ambitious writers empties—leaving only one

standing. When the final story is read, and approval no longer feels

important, all think to leave. But, with the opportunity of a lifetime

dangling above them, deception and cryptic messages lure them back.

Right into a trap laid by an actual killer among them who's desperate to

write their own, bloody ending.

Survival will require a harrowing choice... abandon their aspirations or

strike a bargain with the very shadows that threaten to devour them all.

They arrived hunting for the inspiration to fuel their dreams. Now all must

decide exactly how much of their own skin they’re willing to trade to live

out those dreams.
