Monday Night Murder Blackout | Shadow | 103 pages

Gouge Im

[Sprinkle Cover]

Royal Town, South Korea's best luxury housing project, has the first murder on record.

.

Detective Puck and Tri Hyun-soo rushed to the scene of the main building of Royal Town, but then Hyun-soo found the heartbreaking truth...The deceased was Sadbjol, a VIP ward nurse who was like her real sister.

.

Hyun Soo could not accept Sadbjol's death, so he began to investigate the people around him, but until then he could not find evidence, but soon after, when the people who loved Sadbjol came to mourn each other's grief at the cremation ceremony, while the spirit-sending song was playing her for the last time, the voice of the alarm on his colleague's cell phone rang out at the same time! "I'm not dead."

.

An intense story to solve the mystery of mysterious death, with a problem that stretches to the harsh truth!

[Review]

Sadbjol, a 20-year-old nurse, is missing. She works in the Royal Town, a luxury project created by Vonsequon, who has the nickname Midas Hand. The project has a lot of wealth and a legacy to manage.

.

One day the employee found the woman's body and confirmed that it was Sadbjol. The person on duty was Shin Hyun Soo, who was comparable to Sadbjol's sister. She had to try to find out the truth of her death this time before the police officer was pressured by Millionaire Won to close the case that the nurse had killed herself.

.

The investigation is divided into three ways. Puck and Hyun-soo's police are trying to prove that Sadbjul didn't kill himself. On the other hand, Chief Sean Security found evidence that Sadbjul had drugs in his possession, and Mrs. Audrey, a billionaire who lives in Royal Town, is satisfied with Sadbjul and doesn't believe she killed herself.

.

Mrs. Audrey wanted to see Sadyeol, and she told everyone that Broyeol stole her, that the scheme to bring the thief was even more chaotic because everyone knew that Broyeol was dead except her.

.

In addition to Mrs. Audrey's property, the project found millions of won worth of missing items in Bjonal's hotel room, so that now, in addition to the conclusion that she committed suicide, there are rumours that she was a thief.

.

The case became even more complicated when, at Bjoll's funeral, everyone who attended the event received a text message coming into her cell phone from her number saying --- I'm not dead.

.

Mrs. Audrey decided to put on a photo exhibition as a memorial to Bjoll, completely unaware that one of the prepared photos would lead to the whole truth.

.

A lot of characters + Korean language. Small confusions. Fortunately, the author placed the character clearly. Make it difficult to imagine. Describe the characteristics of Korean society well. In complexity, of course, the author initially tried to overlap a lot of character layers, leading the reader to stray according to the investigative fiction style.

.

Personally, I secretly think that the sluggish walk, plus the hard name, makes it read slowly enough, like being spread on the cover, tricked into thinking that or that Bjoll is not dead, but it's actually just a stolen cell phone message.

.

As chapter 22 passes, the story begins to move faster, suspects begin to appear to the reader to speculate and connect little by little.
