“Dead People Steal Faces” is a novel by Marina Komarova, the third installment of the “When the Client Is Dead” cycle, in the genres of k-drama, Asian fantasy, detective fantasy, and mysticism.
Kim Juwon can see monsters—only they have no face. Lee Yeonjoo gives patients smiles, but his own hasn’t belonged to him for a long time.
Ancient hahwe masks awaken to unleash upon people the eight-hundred-year weight of other people’s sins.
A crack in the bride’s face turns into a passage for a true predator. It steals features, borrows destinies, and begins a chilling experiment: is it possible to assemble a perfect identity by stitching together the best fragments of other souls?
They have the impossible ahead of them—to perform an operation where fear has no face, and where evil has flawless eyes.
