is a crime scene cleaner. But the bloody messes don't bother her not when she's already
witnessed the most horrific thing possible: her sister being pushed in front of a train. But
the killer was never caught and Cora is still haunted by his last words: bat eater. These
days nobody can reach Cora: not her aunt who wants her to prepare for the Hungry Ghost
Festival not her weird colleagues and especially not the slack-jawed shadow lurking around
her doorframe. After all it can't be real - can it? After a series of unexplained killings in
Chinatown Cora believes that someone might be targeting East Asian women and something might
be targeting Cora herself. Soon she will learn . . . you can't just ignore hungry ghosts.
