    Summary

    “Why did you even take this job?” Jongwoo demands, overcome with something that’s been building within him for the past few weeks. He places a foot forward, inches closer until the burning orange embers of Moonjo’s cigarette threaten to cast a permanent glow to his vision.

    Moonjo observes him mildly. His eyes betray him. They emit pure molten heat, intense and focused. He takes a drag from his cigarette. Smoke billows out of his mouth as he asks, impossibly quiet, “Why did you hire me?”

    Or; Jongwoo is a successful author in need of a secretary. Things don't go as planned.

    Arisu and Chishiya get paired up in the Nine of Hearts, a game where they’re forced to either kill each other…or sleep with each other.

There’s something irresistible about Chishiya, no matter how bad of an idea he is.

    Summary

    "It’s not a pleasant truth; the ghost has no qualms about that. He’s had years to reconcile with what he’s done, and he never has. It’s just as delightful to recall the memories now as it had been to carve the meat off the victims’ bones when he was alive to taste it. Blood still lingers between his teeth. Screams often echo in his ears.

    And they’ve been louder than ever since Jongwoo moved into the Eden house."

     ---

    Yoon Jongwoo, a true-crime writer, gets a bargain when he moves into the house where the famous Eden murders took place. It's been seven years since they happened, but the original homeowner never left, and as Jongwoo dives deeper into the case, he begins to sense he's not alone.

    aka Jongwoo shacks up with Moonjo's ghost; angst and romance occur.
