Book excerpt: Set in the near future, this dark coming-of-age fable tells the story of David Faulkner, whose dysfunctional family fuels his ambition to escape his rough blue-collar neighbourhood on Chicago's south side. His angelic good looks coupled with his ethereal talent make him the Leonardo DiCaprio of his generation. In this era in which everything is magnified, where leading movie stars once made $20 million per picture, David -- now Darian Fable -- commands five times that amount. His decision to abandon Hollywood, a fabulous career, untold riches, and retreat to a bucolic estate in Connecticut sets in motion a chain of events that threatens both the lives and careers of some of the most important powers in the entertainment industry -- including his own.
