But James is riding high and hooking up with luscious Jessica Keen. There’s just one thing awry: he’s having vivid dreams of being a demon-hunting warrior, and now he’s committing dangerous and self-destructive acts while he’s awake. As things start to spiral out of his control, James wonders: What’s the price for being the coolest guy around?
