Contents
Plot
Baek Hee-soo has been a bestselling author for the past 20 years. But her reputation gets destroyed overnight when she is accused of plagiarizing a competition entry she'd previously judged. Battling depression and writer's block in the two years since, Hee-soo accepts the suggestion of her longtime publisher friend to stay at a remote country home in a small, rural town with her daughter Yeon-hee, where she'll be able to write in peace. Then Yeon-hee tells her mother that a mysterious, invisible woman in the house has been telling her stories, and Hee-soo turns those fascinating stories into a new book. It becomes an instant bestseller, but Hee-soo's regained fame doesn't last long as she becomes embroiled in another plagiarism scandal, with rumors swirling that the contents of her book are from a novel that had been published 10 years ago. To prove her innocence, Hee-soo sets out to uncover the truth and find who her daughter was talking to.
