Bat Eater and Other Names for Cora Zeng
by Kylie Lee Baker - Fiction, Horror, Supernatural Thriller, Suspense, Thriller

Cora Zeng is a crime scene cleaner, washing away the remains of brutal murders and suicides in Chinatown. But none of that seems so terrible when she’s already witnessed the most horrific thing possible: her sister, Delilah, being pushed in front of a train. She’s more bothered by the germs on the subway railing, the bare hands of a stranger, the hidden viruses in every corner and the bite marks on her coffee table. She pushes away all feelings and ignores the advice of her aunt to prepare for the Hungry Ghost Festival, when the gates of hell open. But she can't ignore the dread in her stomach as she keeps finding bat carcasses at crime scenes, or the scary fact that all her recent cleanups have been the bodies of East Asian women. As Cora will soon learn, you can’t just ignore hungry ghosts.
