Neuware - Legendary music manager Gretchen Solomon is ripped from sleep by a phone call from Cedars-Sinai Hospital, informing her of a young woman in their ER who has listed her as their emergency contact. She was dropped there after a heroin overdose and left for dead. Her name is Gloria, but ten years ago, the music world knew her as Glory, the 'Child Bride' of Davey Grifter, lead singer for the notorious 80's hard rock band, Grifters Anonymous. Once the band's manager, Gretchen has history with Gloria, none of it good. Nevertheless, Gretch agrees to take Gloria in to dry out at the home she shares with her dying husband, Stevie, former bass player for the band.Gretch's motives are largely personal. Her memory has been compromised by a medical procedure gone wrong. And recently, she's started remembering things that both baffle and terrify her about the band. She is hoping Gloria will help her to fill in the blank spaces of her time with managing them. When Gloria divulges a dark secret about the band, Gretch's world is turned upside down as she struggles not just to remember but also to disprove it for the sake of her husband's immortal soul: 'Grifters Anonymous have been moonlighting as serial killers for over a decade.'Played out in the decadent, drug-fueled worlds of the Sunset Strip at the peak of its 80's sleaze rock era, the desperate enclaves littered with would-be hopeful rock acts, and backstage at rock shows where depravity is king, this dark thriller follows Gretchen 'Gretch' Solomon as she navigates an entertainment industry that keeps its secrets well and celebrates psychopaths. With an unhinged PI/ failed rock singer on her heels, Gretch must follow a path without a map. One that will lead her to the truth, no matter how dreadful or absolving it proves to be. …
