A studio worth saving.
Secrets worth killing for.
The novel
Crownline makes movies. Behind its premieres, a different drama is taking shape: an actress and an executive discover they have shared the same man, a star’s marriage becomes a publicity strategy, and a private encounter becomes valuable to people who were never invited into the room.
As a creditor closes in on the Black-owned independent studio, the people fighting to save it must decide whose secrets to protect—and whose lives they are willing to damage. Careers are traded against desire. Lovers become liabilities. The people controlling the footage begin to control the story.
Then intimidation turns violent, and keeping quiet carries a price no contract can contain.
Indie Hollywood is an ensemble drama of ambition, sexual intrigue and the cost of keeping power, by Demetris A. Jones.
