DISCOVER YOUR NEXT READ, FOR FANS OF BUTTER, YELLOWFACE and MRS & MRS SMITH - the Korean cult bestselling portrait of a housewife turned serial killer. Translated by Paige MorrisA gripping tale of love, food and one woman's unconventional quest to support her family._____________I am no ordinary ajumma. I am a killerWhen Mrs Shim - widowed, unemployed, with two children at home and a fridge to fill - answers a job ad at the Smile Detective Agency, she boosts its fortunes forever.
For Mrs Shim is sharp as a blade, handles business cleanly and is like a padlock when it comes to keeping secrets. By day, she prepares kimchi for her family and her neighbour with dementia; by night Mrs Shim is out on a contract. But what starts as a need for survival escalates into a thirst for vengeance. For Mrs. Shim is done with being everyone's doormat. In this savage and side-splitting literary thriller, an ordinary woman dives headfirst into a world of petty criminals, crooked cops and accidental assassins as she embarks on her new career as contract killer.
Gritty and absurd, MRS SHIM is a kaleidoscopic tale of twisted love, unhinged loathing and hopeful reinvention. Its world of endearing misfits, dead bodies and tasty food marks the exuberant arrival of a major new international literary voice.
