Dent
In small towns, everyone knows everything about everybody. Dent is just as the saying goes, suburban but isolated from the rest of the world, the sleepy coastal town is all Emery has ever known. Her father, like most others, works for the Pill Manufactory, Nepenthe, making 'The Pill'. Seasick, cold, headache, cramps? Take the pill. The all-perfect cure in the picture-perfect town.
Tenebris
Like any small community everybody attends church. However, this church, a solid white structure atop a hill, is different from any other in the world. It preaches submission to one woman, the pastor, Will Jamesons mother. She is the orchestrator of the town. The woman behind the curtain. Abusive to her son and adulterous in her marriage, the misconduct of the church is only the tip of a blood-stained iceberg.
Dent High
When less than thirty kids are in a graduating class, it becomes a tight nit community. If you're not in, you're out. Emery Adler just got in, a cheerleader attending all the hottest parties and getting attention from the star football player, Ambrose, Emery has to fight tooth and nail to keep her spot against her competitive frenemies. When her best friend goes missing and she becomes entranced by the school's bad news, Will Jameson, what will become of her precious reputation?
sample of the script:
He cups Emery’s face in his hand and forces her eyes to his. She breathes sporadically, and drops into his chest, crying. He envelopes her in a tight hug, His bloody hands smear her clothing red.
Suddenly they are bathed in the red and blue light of sirens, and the street around them is overrun with cars. Two belonging to the police but four more civilian cars, with recognizable citizens inside swarm them. They all slow to a stop around the bloody scene.
Emery gasps and Will pulls her to the right and down an alleyway as the cops exit their cars, guns drawn. They shoot after them but find only air. They get back into their cars, and all the spectators back out of the street, and race to the right cutting them off.
Will and Emery sprint down the street, and soon the cars are hot on their tails. Will holds onto Emerys hand, and they swerve left, onto another neighborhood street. This street however ends in cliff, and Emery and Will toe the edge, frantically. The cars race down the street towards them.
