Synopsis
As the owner of a bookstore specializing in crime and thriller novels, it makes sense that Gao Chen Wei (Wes Lo) would be a die-hard lover of the genres. As an aspiring author and amateur detective, Chen Wei spends his free time either attempting to solve cold cases with his best friends or publishing his latest crime stories online.
When Administrative Prosecutor Lin Mu Qing (Moon Lee) is assigned to a suicide case, she finds the crime scene more than a little unusual. Realizing this case had too many similarities to a certain online crime story, Mu Qing quickly deduces that her suicide case is actually a homicide. Following the clues, Mu Qing soon finds herself at Chen Wei’s door where she wastes no time charging him for murder.
Despite Chen Wei’s insistence that he’s innocent, the more clues Mu Qing follows, the more guilty he and his friends seem to be. With all the evidence pointing at him, will Chen Wei be able to find a way to prove his innocence?
Full of intrigue, “The Leaking Bookstore” is a 2022 Taiwanese mystery thriller drama directed by Liao Shih Han.
