The main character is Henry, fiction editor for the struggling Logan’s magazine. Henry receives an unsolicited short story from up-and-coming novelist Reg Thorpe, and considers the story to be very dark, but also a masterpiece. Through his correspondence with Thorpe, Henry learns of—and, due to Henry’s own alcoholism, comes to believe in—Thorpe’s various paranoid fantasies.
