520    Doug Engstrom imagines a future all too terrifying-and all
       too possible-in this eerie, dystopic speculative fiction 
       debut about corporate greed, debt slavery, and gun 
       violence that is as intense and dark as Stephen King's The
       Long Walk.  Like many Americans in the middle of the 21st 
       century, aspiring actress Kira Clark is in debt. She 
       financed her drama education with loans secured by a 
       "lifetime services contract." If she defaults, her 
       creditors will control every aspect of her life. Behind on
       her payments and facing foreclosure, Kira reluctantly 
       accepts a large signing bonus to become a corporate 
       gunfighter for TKC Insurance. After a year of training, 
       she will take her place on the dueling fields that have 
       become the final, lethal stop in the American legal 
       system.  Putting her MFA in acting to work, Kira takes on 
       the persona of a cold, intimidating gunslinger known as 
       "Death's Angel." But just as she becomes the most feared 
       gunfighter in TKC's stable, she's severely wounded during 
       a duel on live video, shattering her aura of 
       invincibility. A series of devastating setbacks follow, 
       forcing Kira to face the truth about her life and what 
       she's become.  When the opportunity to fight another 
       professional for a huge purse arises, Kira sees it as a 
       chance to buy a new life . . . or die trying.  Structured 
       around a chilling duel, Corporate Gunslinger is a modern 
       satire that forces us to confront the growing inequalities
       in our society and our penchant for guns and bloodshed, as
       well as offering a visceral look at where we may be 
       heading-far sooner than we know.
