This is not a murder story. It is the story of those left behind. Parasite meets The Good Son in this piercing psychological portrait of three women haunted by a brutal unsolved crime. In the summer of 2002 Kim Hae-on was killed in what became known as the High School Beauty Murder. There were two suspects: Shin Jeongjun who had a rock-solid alibi and Han Manu to whom no evidence could be pinned. The case went cold. Seventeen years pass without justice and the grief and uncertainty take a cruel toll on her younger sister Da-on in particular. Unable to move on with her life Da-on tries in her own twisted way to recover some of what she's lost ultimately setting out to find the truth of what happened. Shifting between the perspectives of Da-on and two of Hae-on's classmates Lemon ostensibly takes the shape of a crime novel. But identifying the perpetrator is not the main objective here: Kwon Yeo-sun uses this well-worn form to craft a searing timely exploration of privilege jealousy trauma and how we live with the wrongs we have endured and inflicted in turn. Praise for Lemon : 'Discovering whodunnit isn't really the point here Lemon is a subtle often intense meditation on the after-effects of violence' Guardian 'Chilling suspenseful and disconcerting... I couldn't put it down and read deep into the night until I finished it with my heart hammering' Frances Cha author of If I Had Your Face
