In the dead of night, Sarah felt eyes piercing through her bedroom window.
A shadow, always at the periphery, haunted her every step.

no fingerprints,
nothing but the chilling breeze of an open window.
The stalker, a ghost in the night, vanished without a trace, leaving Sarah to question her sanity.
