Although his low-quality novels are panned by critics, they instantly become bestsellers. Despite his success, Stone soon learns that fame and wealth bring unexpected consequences. After realizing his mistake, he enlists the help of a famed orator Daniel Webster (Hopkins) in an effort to break the contract and win back his soul.
