The Stranger Diaries

Summary

English teacher Clare Cassidy specializes in a Victorian ghost story writer, but when a colleague is murdered and a chilling line from that very tale appears beside the body, fiction and reality begin to blur. Told through multiple voices including Clare's diary and the embedded gothic story, the novel pays homage to classic ghost fiction while delivering a modern whodunit. Griffiths layers literary games and genuine menace into a clever, atmospheric mystery.
