A struggling writer follows a missing person mystery into Los Angeles' darkest corners. A brand new crime thriller from the author of the acclaimed Joe the Bouncer series.


For generations, Hollywood has attracted all sorts of dreamers… and slowly crushed their aspirations.


Screenwriter Elliott Gross moved to LA with hopes of fame and fortune. He ended up writing for an adult magazine and living in a garage.


When Elliott is sent to write a profile on the magazine's newest star and discovers she has vanished, he digs into the mystery... and is promptly fired by the magazine's unscrupulous owner.


Under suspicion himself, Elliott drifts around before ending up at a celebrity-anchored New Age wellness brand... and discovers a world even darker and more cruel than the industry he just left.


Combining David Gordon's trademark dark humour with a stylish, unflinching, and unpredictable plot, Behind Sunset is a noir-tinged tour through the seamier sides of Tinseltown.
