The man had killed ten women across Virginia and Tennessee and was electrocuted for his crimes back in the late fifties. But he had left a cryptic message scratched on his death cell wall for his captor, detective Joe O’Riley, whose young wife had been the criminal’s final victim.

Now, decades later, another string of murders are working their way across the same two states, taking place in the very same old movie theaters. Expertly applied makeup leaves each victim resembling a different screen star from the fifties era. This evolving trail of death both horrifies and intrigues the now-retired Memphis Chief of Police O’Riley. His investigative fire is rekindled just as his love life returns—dormant since the death of his wife those many years ago.

The striking similarity of the crimes, along with clues left at the crime scenes, baffle the police, the medical examiner, and O’Riley. Could this be a copycat? Or is the perpetrator’s identity more sinister? A cat-and-mouse game between police and killer quickly escalates as the murders continue and once again, the love of O’Riley’s life is planted firmly in the killer’s path.
