THE REDEMPTION OF FRANK MALONE
By Mary Goldman

GENRE: Thriller, Drama
LOGLINE: Haunted by a bloody past and hard wired for violence, mob enforcer Frank Malone gets one last shot at redemption as he matches wits with a most twisted form of evil: a psychopathic teenager planning a massacre at his daughter's school.

SYNOPSIS:

Tormented by his violent past, mob enforcer, Frank Malone has only months to live. Coming to terms with his terminal illness, he is further shocked and confused when he discovers he has a daughter, Dana, who was given up for adoption without his knowledge. Compelled to make contact before he dies, he sets out to find her. For the first time in his life, it’s not about survival anymore. Not sure how to approach her, Frank stakes out the school where Dana teaches. But someone else is watching the school as well—a teen-ager, Derek, with dark intentions. Following his instincts, Frank tracks Derek, discovering his sinister plan: to carry out a massacre at Dana’s school. A “cat and mouse” game ensues, resulting in a final confrontation between good and evil. A showdown where all of Frank’s skills and street smarts are put to the test. With nothing to lose and with the life of his daughter and a school full of children in the balance, Frank makes the ultimate sacrifice. He takes Derek down… losing his life when a SWAT team mistakes him for the shooter. Dana discovers, too late, that the fallen hero is her father.
