In 1830, a young Scotsman serving in the U.S.army was cursed with eternal life by a Shawnee chief. Branded with a ritual tattoo - a red poppy with a smoking skull - William Smith becomes immortal, wandering across two centuries of American and world history. From the Ohio frontier to Paris in the Jazz Age, Tahiti's tropical allure, Rio's fiery rhythms, and Miami's modern chaos, William searches for love, belonging, and redemption. His immortality is both a gift and a curse: he gains wealth, knowledge, and power, yet suffers unbearable loneliness as every bond he makes slips into the past. The story crescendos in the 21st century, where a final encounter forces William to confront the meaning of his curse - and whether it can ever be broken.
