THE 9TH FLOOR

THE 9TH FLOOR

A Psychological Mystery Thriller

By Ishak Maliyakkal Mohammed

Eight writers disappeared. One woman returned. And a forgotten floor holds the truth behind them all.

When journalist Park Seo-yeon receives a mysterious package containing a golden feather and a torn page dated December 12, 1998, she is drawn into an investigation that refuses to stay buried.

Eight writers vanished without a trace. Their connection leads to the mysterious Mirae Story Archive, an organisation hidden behind a history of missing records, forgotten agreements and disturbing secrets.

But the deeper Seo-yeon investigates, the more personal the mystery becomes.

A sealed file bears her own name.

With Detective Han Ji-hoon, she follows a trail of childhood memories, mysterious disappearances and a black door that should never have existed.

Behind it lies the ninth floor.

An impossible place where stories continue without their authors, memories can be manipulated, and the past refuses to remain silent.

As the truth unfolds, Seo-yeon must confront a promise made when she was six years old, the mother she thought she had lost, and a child who has waited twenty-eight years to be remembered.

But the Archive has one final secret.

The ninth reader was never meant to leave.

THE 9TH FLOOR is a gripping psychological mystery thriller exploring memory, identity, family, betrayal and the extraordinary power of stories.

Some doors should remain closed. Some memories should never be forgotten. And some stories refuse to end.
