What do the witnesses see? This anthology follows the people who encounter Sam and Dean Winchester during their hunts—the waitresses, the motel clerks, the police officers, the survivors. Each story offers a glimpse of the brothers through unfamiliar eyes.
Through these perspectives, we see how the Winchesters appear to the normal world: dangerous, devoted to each other, and strangely heroic.
