Jay Watson is in a post-college rut. Stuck in a dead-end job, he is dumped by his girlfriend for a TV celebrity and is broke after blowing through his trust fund. Now his parents want him to settle down, join the family business, and give them grandkidsin short, to say goodbye to his independence. Things couldn't get worse for a twenty-something male, right?
Wrong. He is displaced from his design job at The Grundselton Weekly Review by the boss's niece, a hot young student intern, and Jay is faced with a choice: become a reporter for the paper or find a new job. Traumatized by interviewing at a snooty ad agency, Jay gamely gives reporting a shot, covering school board meetings and fender-benders. But when the sleepy little college town is rocked by the gruesome murder of a vampire-fanged coed, Jay finds himself the prime suspect and is forced to investigate the college's vampire subculture to clear his name, prove his worth to his family, and protect the girl he desires.
Harassed by the killer, stalked by a horny spinster, haunted by a past lover, taunted by a rival, and bullied by a vengeful cop, Jay is about to find out how much life really can bite!
