When their paths cross with Nicholas, the world’s last living scribe, they’ll realize that the business of magic is much bigger and more sinister than they ever expected and will find themselves at the center of a global conspiracy to control magic and those born to wield it. A conspiracy that has been perpetuated by members of their own families… and that will destroy them if they don’t destroy it first.

Exclusive: Gato Grande–an Amazon MGM Studios company–has set their first English-language comedy series titled Climax from Mexican American writer Elena Crevello. The project is currently being shopped.
Climax follows former party girl Alma who, after surviving a near-fatal car accident, finds herself with an unexpected ability: every time she sleeps with someone, she sees a vision of how and when that person is going to die.
