Minyoung Kang: Plant Lady, Gebunden

Klappentext

TEXAS CHAINSTORE MASSACRE meets CONVENIENCE STORE WOMAN in this chilling psychological tale of a green-fingered serial killer. Will you dare to disrespect her plants?

Moving on from a traumatic experience, Yoohee has opened up her own Plant Shop to start afresh.
Rows of plants, meticulously arranged like soldiers, thrive under her green fingers; sunlight filters through the windows at just the right angle making every leaf shimmer with health. It is a plant-lovers' sanctuary, where peperomias and marigolds bloom, while the air itself is like an elixir of peace.

Yoohee welcomes her customers, eager to share her tips, while scolding anyone attempting to caress an unfurling bloom, let alone snap off a stem.

But as night falls, the soothing atmosphere transforms as Yoohee takes her shovel and hoe, and vanishes into her moonlit garden.

In the shadows, she scatters the remains of the day - some finely ground powder and occasionally, the bloody remnants of an unfortunate encounter.

Just as Yoohee thinks the past is buried, a young and determined police inspector comes knocking ...

Atmospheric and haunting, PLANT LADY is a subtle story of obsession and misogyny that will fertilise your deepest fears and keep you rooted right to its chilling last page.
