Jack accompanies the self-styled U.S. Grant -an old college buddy-and his regional wrestling promotion on their fall tour in hopes of sniffing out the mystery and escaping his troubled past…and to avoid any more harrowing run-ins with the deadly Aesir gang. Struggling with a budding romance, the specter of his college-era mistakes, and the undercurrents of a fanatic pro wrestling fandom, some of whom may just be willing to kill, Jack soon finds himself dragged into the limelight-and squarely into the crosshairs of his most dangerous enemies.
