After a Halloween ball for the ages, the world awakens to discover that, somehow, a large portion of global oil production has been knocked off-line.

Despite thousands of ruined oil rigs from Venezuela to Dubai, there exists no evidence of the culprit. As global attention focuses on the boom-and-bust oil capital of Midland, Texas, a witch hunt begins for who could have pulled off the hack of the century...and some take the term "hunt" more literally than others.
