Elizabeth Keener: A new series on tap for star of "The L Word"

I don't watch "The L Word" but I know plenty of lesbians and straight men who absolutely love it. So, they will be happy to know that one of the stars of the Showtime series, Elizabeth Keener, who played aggressive businesswoman "Dawn Denbo" on the show, is set to have a new hour-long drama series all her own.

Here! TV announced today that it has signed a development deal with Elizabeth (pictured above with Cameron Manheim) who will also have a hand in developing the series that is being described as "a cross between 'Silence of the Lambs' and 'Twin Peaks,'"

She will play a lesbian FBI agent sent on an extended undercover assignment in a mysterious small town who juggles personal demons with the demands of her investigation. She soon finds herself increasingly enmeshed in the lives of the town's inhabitants.
