Opis

Los Angeles, December 20, 1976. A botched drug deal leaves four friends dead and gifted but troubled recording engineer, Blake Lilly, disappears to escape from an unscrupulous record producer and his sociopath limo driver. Unfortunately, two of the victims that night were the lead singer and manager of Justin Goodman's "almost famous" band, Goldenrod. Goldenrod is history. To deal with the loss, Justin, attempts to save damsels in distress, confers with mystics, and rescues an emaciated hound that, years later, digs up the remains of a suspected killer from Justin and Blake's past. Meanwhile, Blake retreats further into his dark world of alcoholism and psychosis while keeping his controlling alter ego and identity hidden from everyone . . . including his wife and son. Present-day Nashville. An unrecognizable Blake (as Paul Flowers), offers Justin a gig playing guitar for a country-metal band. At the studio, Justin sees a man in mirrored shades who looks all-too-familiar. Could he be the same limo driver convicted in the Goldenrod murders? Could Paul Flowers be Blake Lilly, whose testimony sent the limo driver to prison for twenty years? Justin fears championing Blake/Paul may be one cause too many in this intriguing and complex tale of drugs, murder, and redemption driven by a rock 'n' roll beat.
