Jeffrey is a “one-time-wonder” novelist with a very high opinion of his intelligence and talent as a writer. He has a new wife, a nosy neighbor with a big crush on him, a stuck-up building association representative, and a newly written and released online novel. His book has received a scathing review by Stacy on myreview.com, an online forum for regular people to review any product or service. He’s lost it, hunted down, and kidnapped Stacy to try and force her to see why the book is so great. Hilarity ensues.
