I Summary
Celebrated documentarian Catherine Ravenscroft receives a package containing a book titled The Perfect Stranger. Horrified by its contents, Catherine sets the book on fire before finishing it, telling her husband Robert that she believes the story to be about her. Flashbacks show that the book was sent to Catherine by Stephen Brigstocke, a retired teacher grieving the passings of his wife Nancy and son Jonathan. Stephen finds a manuscript of the book in Nancy's belongings, alongside a collection of photos taken by Jonathan during his trip to Italy 15 years before, which includes erotic photos of a young Catherine. Stephen publishes the book and sends it to Catherine as revenge for Jonathan's passing, for which he holds her responsible. Another series of flashbacks to 2001 shows Jonathan arriving in Italy with his girlfriend Sasha, who abruptly leaves when she learns her aunt has died in a car crash. Now alone, Jonathan visits a beach where he first sees and surreptitiously photographs Catherine.
