Hollywood, the late 1930s. Raymond Chandler writes detective
stories for pulp magazines, and drinks more than he should. Boris
Karloff plays monsters in the movies, and is a genial,
cricket-playing member of the British filmland colony on the shores
of the Pacific. Both understand that these streets are dark with
something more than night. Together, these English public school
men in exile investigate mysterious matters in a town run by human
and inhuman monsters. Under Home House, the mock gothic mock
mansion of a film mogul, is a mad science dungeon just like in the
movies - where an experiment has gone dangerously wrong, or even
more dangerously right. Fiery death spills onto Sunset Boulevard.
John Devlin, an investigator for the District Attorney's office who
scores high on insubordination, and Laurel Ives, a woman with as
many lives as a cat and names to match, barely escape Home House.
Fired by the DA, Devlin enlists Ray and Billy - Raymond Chandler
and William Pratt (Boris Karloff) - to work the case, which
threatens to expose Hollywood's most horrific secrets. These people
will find out more than they should about the way this town works.
And about each other. And, oh yes, monsters aren't just for the
movies
