ABOUT THE BOOK

KUBRICK'S GAME

What if legendary director Stanley Kubrick left behind a mysterious treasure and the clues to find it were hidden in his films? When geeky film student Shawn Hagan uncovers the game, it's a race against the clock to find the prize before it falls into the wrong hands.
