The newspaper business is booming in 1955 America. Alithia Paras is a University of Tennessee journalism scholar who talks her way into an internship at the Knoxville Times with high hopes of breaking huge stories. She wants to carve out an identity in the business as a real-life Brenda Starr, so the assignments covering weddings and club meetings aren't exactly what she had in mind. But if there's one trait she's inherited from her Greek ancestors, it's persistence.
What she doesn't realize is that landing better stories to cover for the newspaper is about to be the least of her problems. A silent but dangerous evil is lurking in Knoxville's dark corners and alleyways, and Alithia walks right into its path. When faced with an insane individual who believes eternal life is achievable through a uniquely terrifying manner-will her perseverance be enough to save her?
Find out in this thrilling and suspenseful mystery about misfits, Greek-Americans, the South, and thriving metropolitan newspapers. It's a fast-paced and dangerous world for Alithia, in which her editor wants to change her byline to something less ethnic, and a deranged madman wants to make her immortal.
