    Summary

    Sam Winchester’s life is finally perfect. He’s got the perfect girlfriend, he’s been accepted to the perfect law school, and he hasn’t seen his brother in two years or his father in longer still. He’s even managed to tame the automatic reactions drilled into him through years of fighting monsters and training with his father. Hunting is a thing of his past, and he’s happy to leave it there.

    In the correct order of things, Dean should now show up and fetch him to come search for their father, who has disappeared amid strange EVP recordings in Southern California. Jessica should die on the ceiling as their mother did, fueling Sam’s need to get out on the road and hunt. But . . .

    A week after Halloween, when Sam comes home to prepare the perfect dinner during which to propose to Jessica, the perfect girlfriend, so he can start his perfect life, he finds his father waiting for him. Sam rejects John utterly until John tells him that Dean is missing. Suddenly the brother that Sam has been so glad not to see is just gone, and Sam finds he can’t deal with that hole in his life. And those horrible stress dreams that he’s been having for months . . . those may not be as unreal as he'd thought.
