About the book

In 1928, a lonely professor searching for a missing student stumbles onto a conspiracy that may put an end to humanity, while a scientist from a subterranean race discovers that humans are not at all what she expected. Science fiction, cosmic horror, and human frailty. Ordinary people in extraordinary situations. Historically accurate settings and events. Compassionate, deeply drawn characters. A noir mystery that defies explanation. A touch of romance. It all adds up to one thing: an Electric Torch investigation. WINNER OF THE KIRKUS STAR “A page-turner that both frightens and dazzles with its portrayal of cross-species encounters…An entertaining SF thriller, elegantly written and imaginatively conceived.” — Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
