| Plot Summary of Welcome to Lazarus |
|---|
"En route to a reporting job in Little Rock car trouble forces Bob Smith to stop in Lazarus, Arkansas. Suspecting he's lucked up on some bucolic fountain of youth, his investigating skills and innate curiosity take him close enough to the town's secret to fall victim to it. He gets away with his life, his car repaired good enough to get him to Little Rock, and a twenty-four hour gap in his memory only to be drawn back by nightmares and deja vu flashes to Lazarus, where danger and love await him as he searches for those lost hours."
Jacqueline J. Griffey, Resident Scholar
