"Scourge of the Caribbean" has been Stede's favorite book series since he was 12 years old. Now, age 47, divorced, and an aspiring author, he turns back to the series to draw inspiration from the familiar story. But as he starts reading, he realizes that something is different. Blackbeard, the main character, is apathetic and depressed, and the story has changed. Even stranger still, Stede seems to be the only one aware that this change has occurred.

Desperate to understand what's going on, he returns to an old hobby of his, fanfiction, to try and understand what's going on in Blackbeard's mind. But he never expected for Blackbeard to actually start talking back.
