A Wiccan journalist investigates the disappearance of a member of her coven, while a black police detective races to solve a series of occult crimes, and a gay PI seaches for his missing psychic partner. A Baptist teenager wonders about girls, video games, and why the CIA seems to be cloning him.

The truth has always depended on your point of view.
