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.\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Marisha Pessl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Random House Trade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7\/1\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 640\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.4 lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8.3\" H x 5.51\" L x 1.07\" W\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780812979787\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kotton Kandy Skies","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51745189593387,"sku":"9780812979787","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0962\/2978\/5899\/files\/9780812979787_afb5b933-281c-4c1c-a48e-b59ce07a1641.jpg?v=1774871484","url":"https:\/\/2trc11-eq.myshopify.com\/products\/night-film-marisha-pessl-paperback","provider":"Kotton Kandy Skies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
