Synopsis
Spoiler Section (Highlight to Read)
The investigators are tasked by boxing legend Jack Johnson with looking into the sudden winning streak of boxer Stefano Rossi, who until recently, had been dismissed as a washed up has-been who throws fights for money. Johnson is worried, since his own boxer is set to face Rossi in less than a week. The inquiry points to Rossi's recent change in management, sudden growth in brute strength, and even genealogical connections to the town of Innsmouth, Massachusetts. Eventually, the investigators determine that Rossi's heritage makes him a Deep One hybrid, and his new managers—themselves hybrids—are cashing in on his physical change before it becomes externally apparent.
