Grieving for her father who disappears when Lorelei is eight years old, Lorelei eventually finds sanctuary in the arms of a man-child. In Book One, The Siren of Loreley Rock, Lorelei survives her mother’s cruel belittlements and takes her first steps towards realizing her dream of becoming a journalist.
Tragedy befalls her and in protest of the Vietnam War, Lorelei becomes a conscientious objector and exiles herself to Greece.
Having learned how to be a journalist under the tutelage of Philip Papadopoulos, Lorelei marriesher Greek mentor. Together, their news stories lambast the military junta that ruled Greece in the 1960’s and 1970’s. One of their “backdoor” articles is leaked and to avoid being hung for treason, theyescape by sea.
Back in the States, Lorelei realizes her pie-in-the-sky, teenybopper dream, ousts her mother, and runs her mother’s newspaper empire. However, both of them miss the adrenalin-rush of reporting in-country and in 1975, Lorelei and Philip are in Beirut, covering the Lebanese Civil War.
