BLOODY MURDER by Kim Bohyun, is a dark, supernatural revenge thriller about a mother-turned-vampire fated to a lifetime of man-killing time-travel to avenge her daughter's brutal death by murdering violent men who've wronged silenced women. Presenting a detailed and varied spectrum of female rage directed at a society that fails, time and again, to protect women, Kim Bohyun pulls no punches when it comes to exposing the misogyny, gaslighting, and abuse still endured by South Korean women . Boasting a generous cast of characters each given their due through the novel’s episodic narrative style, MOTHERSUCKER is a constellation of micro-stories linking its victims in solidarity without erasing the specificity of their suffering.
Comparable to Asako Yuzuki's Butter, Sharon Horgans's Bad Sisters and Rachel Yoder’s Nightbitch.
