Initial Story Idea

Tom Banks is a journalist who is lacking stories that sell. He is grinding through his job that he is struggling to excel at. We also notice that he is an alcoholic and we find that this may be the cause of his poor work. One day while at home he is sent a USB in the mail. On the USB there is footage concerning Tom Banks. The USB is full of glitches ,distorted and in black and white CCTV effect.  While examining the footage, he finds clues and hits, one of which is a object on the floor, for example a can that is from the factory that it is made in, that leads him to the location. Goes to location finds the scenery, and finds the objects that were in the footage. While he is in the location he finds that there is a man in the chair. He immediately thinks to help this man who  looks like he is in threat of his life. In an attempt to prevents this man killing the man in the chair, he non intentionally kills the torturer. He panics and realises what he has done, the man in the chair getting tortured 'Bryan Maddison' calms him and thanks him for saving his life. To Tom surprise Bryan knows exactly what to do with the body, he helps him dispose of the body in Sulphuric Acid. He is still unable to sell a story and is reluctant to sell the story that he is involved it, as he is a major part of the story and could compromise his secret. Tom meets tracheal who is the sister of the man that he killed by accident and intends to tell her about the death of her brother but it caught away and fall for her. Fearing she may leave him he refrains from telling her. As he is leaving his office he is finds an old article of a man who is related to Bryan and is a criminal rapist.
