Humans are demons; that's just a fact.
But Deyo, a hardened San Diego gangster, couldn't care less about such mumbo jumbo. All he wants is to score his next fix, and word on the street is that an exotic and deadly new strain of heroin - Lions - is exactly what he needs. He's even almost forgotten that bizarre, disturbing memory he's so desperate to obliterate.
Almost.
It's when Lions turns out to be far more than he bargained for that Deyo is thrust into a world the likes of which he could never have imagined. A world with powerful, god-like creatures that lead him through a wickedly humorous odyssey of brutal carnage, explosive lust, and horrifying consequences. A world that turns his entire sense of reality on its head and leaves him with more questions than answers. A world that exists just under our noses.
The world of Numen.
