Content introduction
Claire is a high school teacher and an expert on gothic fiction writer R.M. Holland. One day, her close friend and colleague suddenly and brutally dies in her home, with a line from Holland's The Stranger beside her body: "Hell is empty." Claire is surprised to find that her life and the novels she studies are increasingly overlapping.
The police investigate and suspect that the killer is an acquaintance of Claire's. At a time of crisis and not knowing who to believe, Claire opens her diary and records her fears and doubts about the case. But a few days later, she found a message in her diary that she had never seen before: Hello Claire, you don't know who I am.
Real life and horror fiction interweave, the story is given a terrible life, the ending can be rewritten?
