A chilling international debut following a vampire who targets men who have harmed women-in the present, past, and future-and the woman-led task force entrusted with solving the murders

When a man's body is discovered in a park, Detective Noh Jin-seon is called to the scene, but she soon discovers this case is unlike anything she's seen before. The man, who had been accused of stalking and harassing his ex-girlfriend, was killed with startling force, set on fire, and drained of blood. There are no footprints, no murder weapon, and no leads. Weeks later, another man is discovered murdered in the same way.

What follows is a chorus of characters grappling with the emergence of a serial killer. Among them are women haunted by past abuse who become collectively plagued by visceral dreams of vengeance; a female-led police force tasked with solving the perplexing murders; men who fear their own judgement day will come; and, at the center, Geum-hong, a mother reeling from the loss of her only daughter, who had been brutally murdered by her ex-boyfriend. Her daughter is gone and the trial has passed, but her rage remains, simmering and threatening to consume her...

A brisk, lacerating exploration of power, privilege, and the pursuit of justice-and a foray into the dark underbelly of gender-based violence in Korea-Mothersucker reveals just how far a woman will go to avenge the ones she loves.
