Synopsis

'The perfect mix of horror and heart' - KYLIE LEE BAKER, author of Bat Eater

The genre mash-up you've been waiting for - from the award-winning Korean author Cho Yeeun comes a new novel where a young girl and a teddy bear team up to enact revenge!

A poisoned city - A grieving daughter - A boy trapped in a bear's body.

When the fledgling coastal town of Yamu was rocked by a mass-poisoning attack at The Seaview Parc, the luxury high-rise meant to revitalise the city, Hwayoung was one of many who lost family members. Except she has never believed that her mother was poisoned. Now, fuelled by grief and a desire for revenge, Hwayoung spends her time hustling to save every penny and bring those responsible to justice.

Across town, Doha wakes up in a teddy bear and realizes something sinister has taken him over. When fate brings Hwayoung and Doha together, the two team up for a revenge quest that will shake the city's glittering façade to its rotten core.

This time, revenge is not just personal - it's supernatural.

** Translated from the Korean by Sung Ryu **
