Dial M for Mutants!

Welcome to 1994. Bill Clinton is the president, Twitter doesn't exist, and The Midnight Extra is staring at you from every checkout lane and ratty newsstand along the East Coast. Hollywood scandals, wild gossip, and the occasional UFO. You just can't miss it. You might want to, but you can't.

The Midnight Extra isn't much of a tabloid, but that's never really bothered Buck Vincent. He isn't much of a reporter. And in a paper notorious for Elvis sightings and celebrity sex gossip, Buck's Can You Believe It?! section feels right at home. For twenty-nine years, he's dreamt up stories about Bigfoot, aliens, ghouls, and monsters of every stripe, usually after a whiskey. Or four.

Problem is, Buck didn't dream up his latest story. He's seen the blood. And he's met the strange, smiling woman haunted by something beastly in the night. Hell, he's seen the damn thing himself.

Good thing he's teamed up with rookie photographer Betty Roy. She may be a loose cannon, but she's got more spine than Buck ever had. Gumption too. And together they'll chase a story that might just be chasing them back. Something with teeth. Let's just hope the story is worth all the trouble. Things are getting a little spooky.
