Danziger's Cut

About the Book

Best selling crime-fiction author, Jack Danziger, discovers that the film rights for his one highly personal novel–which details his passionate relationship with his beautiful international model ex-lover, Chantal–have been acquired by his deadly enemy, Kurtz, genius movie maker and psychotic.

As an act of revenge upon Danziger, whom he hates, Kurtz, who has a Svengali-like hold on the girl, intends to turn the book into the ultimate pornographic fantasy; one that will ruin Chantal's career, and maybe threaten her life.

The only way to prevent her destruction by Kurtz and the circus of crazies with whom he surrounds himself, is for the soft-living Danziger to take on the tough persona of his own fictional invention, "Lieutenant McKnight', and follow, step by step, the most dangerous plot he has ever written–an obsessive game plan for real-life that takes him in a deadly direction.

As the pages roll off his word processor, and as Danziger hardens himself up physically for the desperate things he must do, a complex scam develops that will rock the film industry to its heels–and result in a final bloody confrontation with Kurtz.
