Thankfully, it's Christmas and in her letter to Santa, Janie asked for help with her Lyle problem. Santa and his elves are eager to help. Things might not go so well for Lyle.

"Under the Skin": Kagan wakes up in a pool of blood. It isn't the first time he's woken up and found shredded human remains, and he fears it won't be the last.

Heeding the advice of a Navajo shaman, he and his sister set out for the New Mexico desert to find answers.
