Though her death is ruled a suicide, veteran investigative journalist Scott McGrath suspects otherwise. As he probes the strange circumstances surrounding Ashley's life and death, McGrath comes face-to-face with the legacy of her father: the legendary, reclusive cult-horror-film director Stanislas Cordova--a man who hasn't been seen in public for more than thirty years. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFor McGrath, another death connected to this seemingly cursed family dynasty seems more than just a coincidence. Though much has been written about Cordova's dark and unsettling films, very little is known about the man himself. Driven by revenge, curiosity, and a need for the truth, McGrath, with the aid of two strangers, is drawn deeper and deeper into Cordova's eerie, hypnotic world. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe last time he got close to exposing the director, McGrath lost his marriage and his career. This time, he might lose even more.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Marisha Pessl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Random House Trade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/01\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 640\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.4lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.51w x 1.07d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780812979787","brand":"Random House Trade","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43211586732169,"sku":"9780812979787","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_ec15d8d6-dcd8-4f76-8b37-7421564e4f63.jpg?v=1734426004","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/night-film-9780812979787","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
