Story Surveillance #36

Story Surveillance is a weekly exploration of IP opportunities around the world – including everything from book announcements and magazine articles to harder-to-find nuggets in social media, library vaults, lost manuscripts and other rich sources. The survey is carried out by the staff of Project Brazen for its own purposes, but we also share it with a small group of companies and collaborators.

In this week’s edition: A comedy Thanksgiving procedural, the little-known WWII story of a renegade battalion in Nazi-occupied Ukraine, a staged death in Wisconsin, and an acclaimed screenwriter's debut novel in which a spurned lover's social media revenge plan goes very wrong.
