Features: The charm of Cai Jun's writing lies in the pervasive suspense. The new work tells the story of an exploration into a "ghost inn" by the seaside in the 1930s, written in the form of letters. The "ghost inn," built near a cliff, once witnessed a horrifying murder. The inn owner had exterminated his entire family. Years later, what intentions do these new travelers harbor? The entrustment of a blood-stained woman on the bus compels him to investigate; and the girl he rescues, who is in love with him secretly, is actually the soul of a person who drowned at the bottom of the sea in the last century? It combines the historical significance of pure literature with the thrilling appeal of popular fiction.
