"These things have a way of coming to life on their own, escaping the hands of their creator to become monsters of unintended effects." Determined to step beyond her small-town, Southern roots, Marissa Erinson leaves South Carolina to work at a university bookstore in prohibition-era St. Louis. A woman in a man's world and someone who sees past the surface appearance of her friends, Marissa's bravery and acts of kindness create a battle she had no intention of starting. A battle that could cost her life. Like this story?
