The Devil and Dan Cooley

WELCOME TO DEVIL'S POINT! (It's Hell on Earth!)

In Sympathy for the Devil we saw how Satan's minions made a home for themselves in North Carolina. Now, Dan Cooley, a radio DJ who only wants to make the world a better place, meets Puck, an upwardly mobile devil with goals of his own. They make a little bargain—Dan and both of his girlfriends will turn Puck into a gentleman and help him fit in on Earth, and in exchange Puck will help Dan reach more people with his radio show. Their deal works well.

Dan is getting great ratings and Puck— thanks to his urbane new persona—has earned a promotion from the Big Guy Downstairs, So Puck, in a generous show of gratitude, offers to help idealistic Dan re4ach even more people.

Of course,there may be a catch . . .
