(Hardcover, 336 pages, first published in 2022)

Cautions: Redeemed Reader reports this book contains "Violence: A murder mystery with people bent on revenge will necessarily include violence; Sexuality: Concubines are a way of life in 18th century Korea. Hyeon’s mother was one and has since been cast off (essentially) by her father. Concubines are freely discussed, but there are no graphic scenes." See their full review here.
