- Summary:
- Comic book artist Mike Mason arrives at San Diego Comic-Con, seeking sanctuary with other fans and creators -- and maybe to reunite with his ex -- but when his rival is found murdered, he becomes the prime suspect. To clear his name, Mike will have to navigate every corner of the con, from zombie obstacle courses and cosplay flash mobs to intrusive fans and obsessive collectors, in the process unraveling a dark secret behind one of the industry's most legendary creators.
