What kind of suffocating abyss is hidden under the sweet surface of marriage?
Mary thinks she's found the perfect partner, until she discovers there's murder in every smile of her husband, Mark. A well-planned "accidental escape" tore away the illusion of a perfect life: cosmetics disappeared from the closet, strange sobs sounded late at night, strange faces reflected in the mirror... When she tried to escape, she found that she had already become the prey of a century-old curse.
A mental manipulation in the name of love, a personality game in which authenticity is difficult to distinguish.
Mark's tenderness and violence are intertwined, and Mary gradually discovers that she is actually the other half of the protagonist of this nightmare - the "other herself" in the mirror is approaching step by step with a sharp knife, the photos of the dead with the same appearance as herself in the family album, and the motto engraved on the base of the butterfly specimen: "The truth is often hidden in the brightest eyes."
When light and darkness are torn apart deep in the soul, which side is the real self?
A blood-based ritual and a buried family secret force Mary and Mark to face each other's most embarrassing secrets. It turns out that the most terrifying murderer is never an outsider, but the fear and desire deeply rooted in human nature.
"What you thought was the truth was just the beginning of another lie."
In "Silent Shadows", there are no ghosts or supernatural beings, only echoes of the abyss of human nature. When the moonlight penetrates the cracks in the wardrobe, it reveals not only the hidden dagger, but also the suppressed and denied "other self" in everyone's heart.
This gripping psychological thriller will take you on a hair-raising journey of self-examination - do you really know yourself?
Purpose: Social and personal factors behind violence
