Why this must be read: A little sex, a little angst, a little seltzer in your pants! ::snickers:: Bringing you another early TS author’s works.

Daniel Graves, Seattle’s FBI Assistant Director, approaches Simon to get Jim’s help for a sting. It creates the usual FBI/CPD animosity. Then AD Graves gives Jim a new reason to be pissed off – he asks Blair out on a date. Up until this point, Jim hadn’t wanted to pursue a relationship with Blair, even though they are both aware of the other's bisexuality. But now he’s jealous and finds all sorts of reasons for why Graves is wrong for Blair.

This might be described as “Jealous Jim gets off his duff and woos Blair”, but that’s not even close. Yes, there’s jealousy. But there’s also insecurity, obsession, control issues, macho posturing, stalking and fear – and shared around pretty equally among the principal characters.
