Someone has flipped the script, and chaos abounds.


Joey Darling thought she'd take a quick acting gig between filming her hit TV show, Relentless, and prepping for an upcoming movie. The peaceful island of Lantern Beach seemed like a perfect getaway, especially when her fiancé joins her on location.


But from day one on the set, things go awry. Someone alters the script, adding a mysterious death to the movie. At first, the changes seem like a joke. But when real life imitates the script, Joey realizes there's more to the story.


Joey has no choice but to search for answers-with the help of her fiancé, Detective Jackson Sullivan, of course. Each day, more danger comes Joey's way, and it's clear the killer is becoming more unraveled. Joey fears there's a traitor on the set . . . but can she figure out the killer before the final cut?
