Reseña del editor:

In Protecting Elvis, meet three women whose lives have been inextricably influenced - some might say dominated - by Elvis Presley. Velis Emerson, agoraphobic, lives alone in her childhood home with only memories of her mother and father. She devotes her life to her work as corresponding secretary of the Elvis Presley Tupelo Fan Club. Even those close to her can't lure her from the house; Priscilla Jane Johnson, a nurse at the Durham Diet Clinic, cares for Elvis during his brief weight-loss stay. His departing gift of a red Mustang convertible creates a chink in her engagement to Kendall Kennedy, aspiring Gospel songwriter; and Notary Pettiford Midgette, a domestic at Graceland, needs Elvis' help to save the life of her only remaining son, the wayward Antwan who's turned to drugs and the streets of Memphis. Over all hovers the voice of Gladys Presley, the mother who tries to guard Elvis, even from heaven. How can each of these women protect the image of Elvis Presley, a man who has meant more in their lives than the ordinary men they know? How does the King of Rock and Roll influence these three vastly different Southerners, and in doing so help them grapple with their own conflicts and achieve their own redemption? And how do they each end up at Graceland on the same day, forever changed because of The King? Find out in Protecting Elvis.
