Author Howard Blum's recently published book "American Lightning is headed for the big screen reports Variety.
The tale follows the true story of the 1910 terrorist bombings of the offices of The Los Angeles Times in which 20 people were killed as part of a bungled homegrown assault on 100 American cities.
Its aftermath included a battle between William J. Burns-- considered America's top detective -- and crusading lawyer Clarence Darrow to uncover the truth behind the deadly case.
What a facinating story...Should make for a great flick...with the right people on board...
