Movie actress Diana Poole makes it
a rule never to date other actors, her one exception, the one she just dumped,
has taken to twitter claiming he dumped
her. Diana’s last movie may have been a flop but it paid for some much needed
work on her Malibu beach house. Her place isn’t gated and camera ridden so
occasionally fans and stalkery ex-boyfriends turn up outside. Diana thinks that
the woman waving at her and neighbour Ryan from the other side of the pacific
coast highway could be a fan, as she gets closer the woman, spooked by
something they can’t see walks straight into traffic and dies instantly,
closing the PCH for hours and giving writer Ryan about ten years of therapist’s
bills and an idea for a zombie movie.
The mystery woman was carrying a
scorpion, jewel encrusted and instantly recognizable to Diana as belonging to
her late film star mother. How did the dead woman get hold of it? Who scared
her into traffic and why is someone turning Diana’s life upside trying to get
the scorpion back.
With help from PI Leo Heath and
some hindrance from Ryan and his new squeeze, Diana begins to investigate her
mother’s death. She’s fed up of landing the kind of
walk-on-and-die-half-way-through-the-movie type roles but real life could soon
prove to be even deadlier.
