PRODUCER:
Black British journalist Sam Dean looks for stories, not missing persons. But a negative bank balance and an old school chum's request for a favor convince him to go searching for the wayward college-age daughter of a conservative Member of Parliament. Her parents suspect that the girl found Prince Charming and ran away to live happily ever after. Only this fairy tale has a black prince, snow-white heroin, and a trail of secrets that leads Sam into the seedy walk-up flats, betting parlors, and back alleys of the underworld...right into the rocky landscape of London's embattled ethnic neighborhoods, and the dark, deadly terrain of the hurting heart...
