About The Secret of Leaving at Five
To dodge toxic overtime, 28-year-old engineer Eve invented a fake, hot-tempered husband named Logan. Three years later, her lie backfired. Her employee Tina was raped on a stormy night and swore the attacker was Eve’s husband. When the police kicked Eve’s door down, ready for a fight, they actually saw a man cooking in the kitchen. But despite the cops shouting at gunpoint, the man didn’t flinch. He didn’t blink. He didn’t react at all. Not human? What, is it a ghost?!
