Murdering a man is a whole lot cheaper than paying him twenty grand.
It’s Memphis, 1965. Elvis passes his evenings at the movie-house, endlessly watching Stanley Kubrick’s Dr. Strangelove. His friends and hangers-on are starting to worry-and so is his famously hucksterish manager, Colonel Tom Parker.
Things only get worse when the King finds out that someone has been disguising himself as Elvis in order to seduce his young female fans, and that Colonel Tom’s been paying off their parents to keep the scandal out of the press.
When a photographer who claims to have documented these seductions is murdered-and Colonel Tom is arrested for that murder-the stakes become life and death. All eyes are on Elvis, and only he can investigate the lethal crime, clear the innocent, and bring the guilty to justice.
