Soon after speaking with her aunt and Steven on the phone, Susan is brutally murdered in her home. Her aunt is the secretary of Steven Hawk. Terrified, Susan calls her aunt in New York City. His secretary Susan Johnson then finds herself relentlessly stalked by a very ominous figure. Henry is fatally injured after crashing his car. Bank President Henry Miller is pursued through the rainy streets of Los Angeles by mob goons. Added to this deadly cocktail is a sultry femme-fatale torch singer who is entangled in a web of lies, deceit, and deadly intentions which may prove fatal for Steven Hawk. He is quickly thrust into a web of corruption, crime, deceit, detectives, double-cross, embezzlement, murder, and mystery. Again, set in 1938 Los Angeles New York Private Detective Steven Hawk is called to Los Angeles to handle a case, but when he arrives he discovers that his client has been murdered. Anyone have any ideas? I can add more about the plot if necessary. Only problem is i draw a blank when it comes to a log line. This gave my rep the idea to put together a pitch package and pitch to studios as a possible cable TV series. I have 4 other scripts in development with the Steven Hawk character spanning the years 1938-1950. ![]() ![]() New York Private Detective Steven Hawk is called to Los Angeles to handle a case, but when he arrives he discovers that his client has been murdered. Steven is a mesh of Bogart's Philip Marlowe and Sam Spade characters colliding with Steve McQueen ruggedness and toughness, Han Solo sarcasm, and Indiana Jones attitude thrown in. ![]() He makes serious mistakes but is very persistent. Steven tends to get himself in very dire, many times almost fatal, situations. This does not mean, however, that he is infallible. Steven Hawk is charismatic, charming, dashing, suave, and has a quick wit. Think Bogart's Sam Spade and Philip Marlowe characters. The Fourth Night is an old fashioned private detective story set in 1938 Los Angeles. It is a 3 time finalist, and just finished in 3rd place in the Courier Awards. Need a great logline for script being pitched to studios by my rep as a possible cable TV series.
