Description
Love is the most despicable excuse.
On the lonely outskirts of Seoul, reports come in of a series of suicides at a hospital. The strange and bloodless nature of the elderly victims is dismissed by most, but not Detective Suyeon.
As Suyeon begins her investigation, a mysterious woman named Violette appears at the crime scene and gives Suyeon the answer: a vampire did it.
The two women begin the hunt for an ancient, supernatural culprit which, in turn, reveals a landscape of modern isolation in a dark, nocturnal Seoul. But as the investigation unfurls, past and present romance and loneliness intertwine it becomes increasingly clear that they, too, are being hunted…
Sometimes the monsters we seek are less frightening than being alone.
The Midnight Shift is a gripping mystery, overflowing with commentary about societal isolation and loneliness, the sharp knife of grief, and the effects of marginalization, perfect for readers of Cursed Bunny; Woman, Eating; and A Certain Hunger.
