• Synopsis not yet written

Solicit Synopsis

• They say the road to Hell is paved with good intentions, and in BEN REILLY’s case, that may be literal!

• For months, Ben’s attempts to cure a young girl’s rare illness have proved fruitless — that is, until a mysterious benefactor from the DIOGENES INITIATIVE reaches out to him with the promise of salvation… for a price.

• Ben’s made his fair share of bad choices in the past, but will it matter if he makes this one for the right reasons? And more importantly, will that be enough to save his soul?
