The world knows him as Savage Sam—a name whispered in fear, spat in disgust. His story is smeared across every news channel, his story twisted into a grotesque legend: a serial killer lurking in the shadows, striking with ruthless precision.

 Diane believes they are wrong. Sam saves lives. He does what others won't. What others can't.

 When the authorities and justice failed, he made it right, or so Diane thought. Yet every corpse found, every bloodstained alley, every missing person was seen by those who refused to see the truth as vengeance.

 Now, no one believes Diane. The police officer in charge is her father, who is out to get him, as is the rest of the police force. So she must ask herself: When the whole world sees a monster, is she right about him, or dead wrong?

Dave wasn’t aiming high—just high enough to graduate. Senior year was supposed to be simple: survive the classes, scrape by, and maybe—maybe—find a college that would take him. But with his grades slipping and time running out, desperation led him to a curious solution: Dear Teacher, a sleek, study program that promised not just academic improvement, but transformation.

At first, it seemed like just another app—flashcards, quizzes, reminders. But Dear Teacher was different. It didn’t just track his progress; it tracked him. It asked questions no teacher had ever asked. It listened. It adapted. And slowly, Dave began to change—not just as a student, but as a person.

What unfolds is more than a story of academic redemption. It’s a quiet, compelling exploration of mentorship, identity, and the strange intimacy that can form between a struggling teen and a machine designed to help. As Dave’s relationship with Dear Teacher deepens, so does the mystery: is this software simply smart, or is something else at play? Is Dave being guided toward success—or toward something he doesn’t yet understand?
