Synopsis

Screwtape, a senior devil from hell, has delegated some authority to a junior fiend, Wormwood; whose assignment is to seize the soul of a very human and lovable young man, Michael Green. The rather charming Wormwood is being critically supervised in this, his first case, by that extraordinary devil, Screwtape. Advice from this old hand from hell is devastatingly perceptive of human foibles and, despite the love of a wonderful young girl, Judy Macadam, our young man is in terrible danger. It's really a close decision and, in a dazzling resolution, we all learn something important about hell, heaven, religion, and humanity.
