She'll go on to become the first Black female journalist at the Los Angeles Times, but Lou's extraordinary life is about to become even more remarkable. Taken in by a caring foster family, Lou dedicates herself to her education while trying to put her mysterious origins behind her. Lou, a young Black woman, wakes up in an alley in 1930s Los Angeles, nearly naked and with no memory of how she got there or where she's from, only a fleeting sense that this isn't the first time she's found herself in similar circumstances. An extraordinary novel featuring a Black immortal in 1930's Los Angeles who must recover the memory of her past in order to save the world-from NAACP Image Award Nominee Natashia Deón, the author of Grace, a New York Times Best Book of the Year.
