    Summary

    Ludwig Beilschmidt, a former investigative journalist known for his critique of the United States financial sector, arrives in Palo Alto, Silicon Valley to begin his new role as a correspondent for Industrie Heute, an internationally recognized finance journal based in Berlin.

    At an upscale launch party, Ludwig inadvertently clashes with Alfred Jones, a rising venture capitalist who seems to embody the Valley’s nouveau riche tech elite and who seems to be everywhere Ludwig turns.

    Summary

    “Well, this is a surprise.”

    Logan turns around at the sound of Jess’s voice, remembering the reason he came here.

    “What are you doing here?” Jess asks, crossing his arms.

    “I got an invitation.”

    “It wasn’t sent to you.”

    “Well, it was sent to my apartment.”

    “Didn’t read the name on the envelope? Huh. Didn’t know it was possible to be so rich that they let you into Yale even if you’re illiterate.”

    Logan sets his jaw. “Fuck you.”

    “Right back at you.” Jess turns to go.

    “Hey,” Logan says, putting a hand on his shoulder and spinning him around again. “We’re not done here.”

    “Yes, we are,” Jess says. “This is my workplace, and my event, and I’m saying we’re done, so we’re done.” He pushes Logan’s hand off of him. “Excuse me.”

    Summary

    “I got word of a job. There’s a faith healer traveling around with a carnival that sounds like bad news.”

    Dean’s to the end of his cigarette and he turns the stump of the filter over in his fingers.

    “Faith healers aren’t always doin’ black magic. What makes you think this is our kinda thing?”

    His father grunts. “This guy’s doing something different. He claims he’s healing people with the help of a captive angel.”
     

    After Sam leaves for college, Dean finds himself hunting alone. John has him look into a carnival that boasts a “real, live angel!” as part of its traveling show. The angel is real. So are Dean’s feelings for him. So is the evil that lurks in the grimy corners of small town America.
