Dead Shot

Raised in luxury, Gillian is shaped by tragedy. Her mother, a model, was murdered when Gillian was seven, and her wealthy grandparents raised her. Gillian has made a name for herself as an artist by creating gruesome photographs of herself as a murder victim.

Yet he willingly becomes Gillian's bodyguard and confronts her death wish, hoping to give her something to live for. Famous for her depictions of violence, photographer Gillian Gray is no stranger to controversy. When demonstrators protest the opening of an exhibit of her work, Detective Ray Pearce is hired as her bodyguard. Soon, murdered victims start to turn up--posed in scenes from Gillian's horrific photos. Original.
