Summary
When the other Vees don't show up to stop Vox, Alastor is forced to, once again, save the day himself. He offers to make Vox a deal. One martini in exchange for saving the world.
Of course, every deal made in Hell has much more to it than what the words alone say. Their personal history with the cocktail goes back to the 1960's, a brand new sinner named Vincent getting the lay of Hell, a wide-smiling patron of the arts, and an utter refusal to ever define a relationship.
It's a love story, if you squint.

Summary
Dr. Vincent Whittman is a marine biologist who should be writing a grant proposal—but instead, he’s binge-listening to “Southern Strange”, a podcast by the ridiculously charming Alastor Hartfelt. One episode turns into twenty, and suddenly Vincent is convinced he’s studying podcasters instead of bull sharks…and also possibly falling in love.

Summary
1933. New Orleans.
Vincent Whittman’s assignment (punishment) seems simple enough: recruit Mr. Alastor Hartfelt, the city’s famed radio star.
But his trip derails the moment he meets the man dressed in a smile too sharp, with secrets too deep, and a presence that hums with something far beyond him.
One broken ritual binds them for decades, pulling them back to each other again and again, to the one soul neither can quite break away from.- Language:

Summary
“The camera also only shows so much, capturing the world in black and white.” The man tapped the blunt side of the knife against Vincent’s cheek. “Did you know there was a time when those with blue and green eyes were considered clairvoyant? Can you see the future, Vincent Whittman? Perhaps that was what made you a decent weather boy. Are you sure you should have strayed from that path?”
or: Up-and-coming TV personality Vincent Whittman catches the attention of New York's latest serial killer through a fortunate choice of dump site, beginning a dance through the decade of evading police, absolutely killer ratings, and changing the trajectory of Hell itself...if they can manage to muddle through this weird 'I don't know why I don't want to kill you' feeling thing at least. Either way, the 50s aren't even remotely ready for them.

Summary
Vox has given up. After what has happened to him after the cannon fiasco, he is a disgrace and is rejected by all of the denizens of Hell. Seeing himself as useless, his mind goes to a very dark place to the point of ending his own life. Alastor refuses to let that happen.
Seeing no hope in sight, Vox gives his soul to Alastor. He didn't realize that doing so may allow him to see their connection, and himself, in a whole new way.
