The story follows Viktor Larenz, a renowned psychiatrist whose twelve-year-old daughter, Josy, disappears under mysterious circumstances from a doctor's office [1, 2]. Two years later, while retreating to a remote island to cope with his grief, Viktor is approached by a mysterious woman named Anna Glass [2, 4]. She is a novelist who claims that the characters she creates come to life—and her latest protagonist bears a terrifying resemblance to Josy [2]. Why Read It?

Fitzek is known for "mind-bending" plots where the reality of the characters is constantly in question [4].

The chapters are short and designed to keep you turning pages (or swiping on your e-reader) [3, 4].

The isolated island setting adds a layer of claustrophobia and tension to the mystery. Availability
