Yu-Jin a 26-year-old who lives with his mom and her adopted son. The story starts with Yu-Jin waking up thinking that he may get another seizure (a neurological disorder). But he was awakened by a strong metallic odour. When he opens his eyes, he was shocked to find the bloody footprints all over his home. He follows the footprint and was shocked to see his mother's body lifeless. He strongly believes that the intruder is still in home but he has no memory of what happened at the previous night. He tries to recall everything that happened at the night. To do that, he only has his mother's journal in which she wrote everything about his psychological disorder.

This is one of the best psychological thrillers I have ever read. It was scary and creepy. This is my first book which I am reading from the killer's / a psych's perspective. The way author described about the happiness or adrenaline rush the killer gets when he sees fear on other's face was so disturbing. I came to know after reading the book that this story is based on a true serial killer's story who accepted about his psychic manners in public. It's a gripping story. It has 4 parts. I felt that first 2 parts were little draggy since I was so confused and was not able to conclude anything. But after that everything fell into place and the story was unputdownable. If you love psychological crime fictions, I urge you to read this book.
