Best Seller
Writing A Book Is Easy. Writing A Best Seller Is Murder.
Directed by John Flynn
Produced by Orion Pictures, Hemdale
A tense crime thriller about an unlikely partnership between a hit man and a writer-cop uncovering corruption, driven by paranoia and political intrigue across America.
Hit man Cleve approaches writer/cop Dennis about a story for his next book: How Cleve made a living, working for one of the most powerful politicians in the country. To get the story right, they travel around the country to gather statements and evidence, while strong forces use any means they can to keep the story untold.
