"Then I heard something behind me, something like heavy breathing, like a person who'd been constantly running. I froze really stiff and the birds stopped their swooping. I think I must've stopped breathing, too.
I turned and there was Grayson on the ground.
I mean, he was crouched down.
There he was: blood covering his chin, his eyes like two darts pointed right at me. He was panting, smiling, his hands dug into the dirt of the forest floor: all dark colored, all messed up.
'Ethan,' he whispered and for a moment, I didn't think I heard him."
In Kettle, Minnesota, nerdy, reserved bookworm Ethan Lesnicki, and arrogant, conceited head football player Grayson Clark are best friends, though they share little in common. They share even less in common when Grayson mysteriously gains an appetite for human blood after a disastrous fire at a local bar. As Ethan's classmates are steadily killed in gruesome attacks, Ethan must uncover the truth behind Grayson's transformation and find a way to stop the bloodthirsty rampage before it's too late.

"Ah Grayson," He drawled as he extended an arm with sharp claws to lean against the tree, "you finally stopped ignoring me. Do you know what this means?"
The demon's smile only seemed to get wider, the eyes following suit. In a blink of an eye he was in front of Grayson, grabbing his throat.
He brought Grayson's ear closer to its mouth, the smell of sulfur filled his nose making him cough and struggle against the demon's grip.
"Your true self is finally coming alive." The demon's teeth clicked as he spoke. "This is going to be so much fun."
Grayson is a troubled soldier who cannot remember anything about his past beyond the war. Eleanor is his wife who has kept her illness a secret, and will continue to until the day she dies.
When Eleanor disappears, Grayson goes on a quest to find her, trying to find any kind of clue to point him in the right direction.
But the deeper he dives into his search, the stranger things become. A new realm, suppressed memories, odd companions, and an old acquaintance that lives within him, all will either eat away at his sanity or have him become something darker. Something sinister. Something evil.
