Kaz Kaan is mourning the death of a relationship: his girlfriend Cathy has headed off for a job on the West Coast, leaving him and the city of Neo Yokio in the dust. The one good thing to come out of the breakup is the fact that Kaz is back on the Bachelor Board (a public display that ranks the most handsome, wealthy, and desirable single men in Neo Yokio according to public opinion). But Kaz Kaan is stuck at #2, while his rival Arcangelo maintains a strong grip on the top spot.

Normally, Kaz would be throwing all his energy into improving his rank on the bachelor board, but melancholy over his recent breakup has sapped his will to do even that. On top of that, his Aunt Agatha's got a job for him to do. Kaz is one of a long line of exorcists who keep the city safe from the threat of demonic possession, and celebrity fashion blogger Helena St. Tesoro is the latest victim. Kaz and his robot butler Charles travel to Helena's residence in the sunken southern tip of Manhattan, and Kaz attempts an exorcism on Helena but find his powers are ineffective. Dejected by his failures, Kaz returns home to mope, but a sudden insight into Helena's wardrobe choice just might lead him to crack the case.
