Death lies between the lines when the events of a dark story start coming true in this haunting modern Gothic mystery, perfect for fans of Magpie Murders and The Lake House.


Clare Cassidy is no stranger to murder. A high school teacher specializing in the Gothic writer R. M. Holland, she even teaches a course on him. But when one of Clare’s colleagues is found dead, with a line from Holland’s iconic story “The Stranger” left by her body, Clare is horrified to see her life collide with her favorite literature.

The police suspect the killer is someone Clare knows. Unsure whom to trust, she turns to her diary, the only outlet for her suspicions and fears. Then one day she notices something odd. Writing that isn't hers, left on the page of an old diary:

Hallo Clare. You don’t know me.

Clare becomes more certain than ever: “The Stranger” has come to terrifying life. But can the ending be rewritten in time?

Thinking Face“Was I the only one that thought the boyfriend being the killer was strange? Like we barely even knew him or got a back story. He was like an unimportant character until he was revealed to be the killer 😭”
Slightly Smiling Face“Okay, took me a while to get through it, could have almost been a DNF but I persevered. My hypothesis from the beginning remained true, a bit predictable A good read if you’re looking for a palate cleanser ☺️”
