Ernest Maxwell Graves is a talentless writer who gets the help of a ghostwriter to write his book, only in his case, an actual ghost called White Lotus who had committed suicide under a bridge at Taiping Botanical Garden. She has a story to tell the world, having been an actual ghostwriter for a famous crime novelist when she was alive—Adrian Holmes, who is implicated in the murder of her twin sister, Red Lotus.
It is murder mystery meets horror fantasy, a story about committing murder by the book with borrowed knives, and told with surprising twists at every juncture. Above all, it is a story about love and redemption that takes the sisters to hell and back!
