In June,
we are discussing The Stranger Diaries by Elly
Griffiths. This title is available as an ebook from DownloadLibrary.
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?
