Writing is a way to give life to imagination, to give voice to thoughts and feelings that often find no space in real life. But what if the line between reality and illusion became too thin? What if written words became a means of escaping the true story?
The story begins when the newly elected mayor of the city is suddenly kidnapped, with the kidnapper leaving a note with a message referencing the writer Alice Bennett. From this point, the police call on Alice to assist in the investigation, even though she makes it clear that she is doing so against her will because she has no connection to the criminal. Meanwhile, Alice seeks the help of psychiatrist Dr. Kate Wyatt, who is also her best friend, to profile the kidnapper and help her deal with this situation. But the more Alice advances in the investigation and delves into the mind of the criminal, the deeper she goes within herself, bringing forth secrets she once decided to forget.
"The Two Faces of Writing" is a narrative that delves into the mind of a complex and mysterious character. At its climax, Alice struggles to regain control of her mind and her life, in a conflict between what is real and what is illusion.

It's not the fact I don't want this, because I do. I voice my thoughts out loud. "Once we do this, we can't go back." His lips meet my neck, pressing small kisses against my skin.
