Stories have long had their villains — the lurking shape at the edge of the light, the figure who enters and leaves by night. But the most powerful stories remember something important: it is not the monster who carries the tale. It is the ones who face the monster.
In 1901 Buffalo, during the great glittering event called the Pan-American Exposition, something dark moves through the edges of the celebration. The bodies of women — already invisible to the world of officials and authority — begin to appear.
And so five women decide to do what no one else will. They stand together. They look for the truth. Brighton understands that the oldest story is not about the monster. It is about who stands up when standing up costs everything.
