Book Intro

The Savior at Night

 

Several suicide incidents ensue at a rehabilitation hospital in an old town of Incheon, and the young investigator begins to suspect a middle-aged woman who appears at the scene of each incident.

"The Cheolma Rehabilitation Hospital is located in an old town of Incheon. The fourth suicide incident occurs. The police are ready to close the cases as mere suicide because the families of the deceased neglect the deceased but Subin finds it odd that there is no trace of blood on the fallen body from the scene. Then a middle-aged woman appears with the dubious claim it was caused by a vampire.

 

One day, Grandma Oksu who is a close acquaintance with Subin, turns out to be the sixth person to die from the suicide incident. Subin decides to take things in to her own hands. She finds out that a similar serial suicide incident that occurred 5 years ago involved propfol found in the bodies, and that the culprit currently works at the hospital. Wanda clings to this case because she is desperate to find her long lost love - and vampire - Lily. Subin and Wanda finally face the true culprit.

 

Why Savior of the Night?

 

¶ This is a vampire romance weaved into a mysterious narrative. Detective Subin and vampire hunter Wanda set out to catch the culprit knowing that the suicides were caused by a vampire, and they are met with a sad love story. The well paced mystery is difficult to predict and includes a vivid romance.

 

¶ In the story the rehabilitation patients, LGBTQ individuals, foreign adoptees, and vampires each feel isolated for different reasons. SeonranCheon's unique writing style adds to the coldness, and deepens the story with the added sentiment behind ""waiting.""
