Synopsis "Please Come Back"

Paris, 1937. On a sultry July evening, a beautiful American woman vanishes into thin air. At first the gendarmes don't believe she's really missing. Perhaps she's run off with a lover, they cynically suggest. But the woman's aunt knows better and feels helpless when ransom notes begin to arrive. Reporter Ansley Sage gets assigned to the story and launches an investigation that will take her headlong into the path of the most blood-thirty gang of killers Paris has ever known. Due to police indifference, Ansley takes risks that put her life in grave danger, but she gets help from a handsome American diplomat and a socially inept drifter who writes bad love poetry. Based on the true story of the last person to be publicly guillotined in France, PLEASE COME BACK draws on extensive historical research to tell this gripping and tragic episode that made headlines the world over--only to be largely forgotten.
