Two women go missing in Vietnam twenty-five years apart. Their fates are bound together by ghosts and ancestors, by lands and bodies possessed. Barrelling through the sweaty nightclubs of Saigon to the haunted forests of Vietnams Central Highlands, Violet Kupersmiths heart-pounding fever dream of a novel deftly combines Vietnamese history and folklore in a playful, utterly unforgettable debut.
Feverishly energetic and playfully creepy, an unforgettable debut that hurtles through the ghostly secrets of Vietnamese history
