Press Release


Jan 31, 2023

Author and beauty industry insider Dana Kline announces the successful release and reception of her beauty industry drama, BEAUTYLAND, and that she is pursuing a big-screen adaptation for the book. 

Dana Kline had a dynamic 25-year career in the luxury beauty & fashion space, privy to its inner workings, politics and secrets. Dana served as a C-level executive and consultant for brands such as Puig, Liz Earle, Fusion Brands, LVMH and Christian Dior, and One Direction.

Her book’s compelling story and strong female lead make it a perfect fit for TV or film adaptation and are sure to captivate audiences. “There should be a place for it in this [streaming] world,” says Mel Damski, Oscar & Emmy-nominated Director, Filmmaker and Executive Producer. 

The novel follows the rise of Emma O’Farrell Paige as she breaks free from her dysfunctional Midwest childhood and navigates the competitive industry, playing to win among world-class dealmakers with tenacity and courage. This is “Sex in the City” meets “Mad Men,” told from a powerful personal perspective, delivering an immersive depiction of the cut-throat, vaulted beauty industry. 

Since its release in the fall of 2021, Beautyland by Dana Kline continues to receive stellar reviews from readers, beauty industry veterans and publishing professionals alike. Most recently, the book received a glowing Kirkus Review, the most trusted voice in book discovery. The Kirkus review captures the essence of the novel, brilliantly stating, “Emma always wanted more out of her life. When she was a child, her parents, career con artists, bounced her around from town to town as they pursued their latest schemes, which made it impossible for Emma to feel at home anywhere. […] She follows her path to success in the beauty-product industry, which involves cosmetics, perfume, and many colorful characters […] and quickly rises in her chosen field, making herself indispensable to industry leaders. […] Kline displays an impressive knowledge of the business in which Emma dwells, and this is the novel’s main strength.”

BEAUTYLAND is published by Austin Macauley Publishers Limited and is available worldwide on Amazon, at Waterstones, Barnes & Noble, Waterstones UK, WH Smith UK, and Dymocks.

Search: The Naina Murder Case — India’s Finest Crime Drama This Year?

When Konkona Sen Sharma steps into the khaki uniform as ACP Sanyukta Das, you know this isn’t just another cop show. Created by Rohan Sippy, this six-part thriller, streaming now on JioCinema, dives headfirst into the murky depths of a high-profile teen murder, pulling in political conspiracies, personal vendettas, and a weary but relentless investigator haunted by her own past.

Loosely adapted from the acclaimed Danish series The Killing, this Indian iteration doesn’t merely replicate—it recontextualizes. The victim, Naina, isn’t just a plot device; she becomes a symbol of societal rot. With each suspect introduced, the narrative tightens its grip, drawing you deeper into a maze where truth and deception are indistinguishable.

Konkona anchors the series with a performance so nuanced it often compensates for the show’s weaker moments—particularly the mid-season lag and a finale that leaves more questions than answers. Still, the murmurings of a possible Season 2 are well-earned.

The brilliant Konkona Sen Sharma stars in ‘Search: The Naina Murder Case’ as ACP Sanyukta Das, a detective whose plan to save her marriage is derailed by one last, harrowing case. The murder of a teenage girl, Naina, forces her to confront dark secrets at every turn. The investigation becomes intensely personal as the case intertwines with her own struggles, testing her resilience to its breaking point. Will solving the mystery cost her everything? The gripping search begins October 10, exclusively on JioHotstar

Verdict: If you crave tightly-wound whodunits with a soul, Search: The Naina Murder Case is a compelling slow-burner with a powerful female lead at its heart.
