Summary:

Hunters of the supernatural are keepers of the peace, even if they run a bit under the radar. They keep the human-killing creatures under control, while wee creatures like pixies and ghosts are treated as household pests. Dean is hunting down whatever is killing off whole populations of prisons and small towns in Northern New Mexico, with his new pal, the mysterious–but hot–weirdo, Cas giving him a hand. His usual partner, Charlie, is working with the witch Meg to find the slippery source, which leaves it up to him and the obviously inhuman Cas to do the legwork. “Obviously,” because–although Cas doesn’t even ping his hunter radar–he knows too much, and to not even be on Dean’s radar at all…? That’s impossible.

Meanwhile, people are dying, the road is long, and Baby is out of order.

But maybe a road trip in an ugly camper truck, a curious case, and a working vacation in a Santa Village in the wilds of New Mexico with the blue-eyed mystery man is just what Dean needs?
