VANESSA MORGAN, author of Drowned Sorrow and The Strangers Outside, has just released her latest screenplay – A Good Man. If you like Dexter and American Psycho, chances are you will love A Good Man. Louis Caron is a good man – vegetarian, he feeds the homeless, takes care of animals and is concerned with the ecological future of the planet. But his altruism has a sinister edge – he’s a vampire – and local detective Taglioni is becoming increasingly suspicious. Louis’ attempt to escape the police will take him on a journey into his own private hell where he is not only forced to confront his worst fears, but also to destroy the lives of those he cares about most.
A Good Man is currently in pre-production with Radowski Films! I really look forward to seeing it on the big screen. With Vanessa’s talent as a writer, and her creative vision, I have great expectations for the movie. A full review is already scheduled on the Space Jockey launch pad. Stay tuned for more details and updates about A Good Man. I’ll be sure to keep you posted!
From Vanessa’s “About Me” page on her website:

“When Vanessa Morgan’s first novel of supernatural suspense, Drowned Sorrow, came out in 2009, critics all over the world praised her as the ‘female version of Stephen King’. In 2010 followed a short YA story: The Strangers Outside. Both books quickly became Amazon bestsellers and are currently being turned into movies.
Suko’s Notebook called her writing “Everything horror fiction should be: creepy, scary, suspenseful, and yet also touching”, horror director Lucky McKee said Vanessa is “a startling new voice in horror,” and author Scott Nicholson has hailed her as a “talent of pacing and spookiness”.
