Night of the Five Dogs

Dead schoolchildren are found in an old, abandoned house. The taekwondo teacher admits to the crime. But why did he kill his own students—and what does it have to do with Pak Semin, an albino boy who was bullied by the murdered?

“Night of the Five Dogs” is a story about a person who is guilty already simply because he was born—because in a world of “equal” people, anyone who differs becomes an outcast.

For the first time in Russian: a Korean psychological thriller, a bestseller, the winner of the 7th youth literature prize “Hwangsanbol.” A novel that makes you think about the nightmares hiding behind the mask of everyday life—and shows the dark side of a society where an endless night of the five dogs reigns.
