Summary

In this paranormal murder mystery, psychic medium Pepper Martin is contacted by the ghosts of Eliot Ness and Al Capone. Pepper Martin, now Community Relations Director of Garden View Cemetery, is contacted by the ghost of Eliot Ness, one of Cleveland's most famous dearly departed. According to Ness, the ashes scattered at the ceremony twenty years earlier weren't his. His were stolen prior to the ceremony by a Ness groupie, and he cannot rest until those ashes are found. Luckily, Pepper has an idea where they may be. Knowing she'll have no peace until she does what the ghost wants, Pepper travels across town to retrieve the ashes. When she gets there, though, she finds more—and less—than she bargained for. There is a dead body in the house…and Eliot Ness's ashes have vanished. Now Pepper must solve a murder. But when a mysterious package arrives for her containing the spirit of Al Capone, and her boyfriend Quinn begins acting strange, things go from bad to worse…

    Shortlisted for the International Booker Prize, Cursed Bunny is a genre-defying collection of short stories by Korean author Bora Chung. Blurring the lines between magical realism, horror, and science-fiction, Chung uses elements of the fantastic and surreal to address the very real horrors and cruelties of patriarchy and capitalism in modern society. Anton Hur's translation skilfully captures the way Chung's prose effortlessly glides from being terrifying to wryly humorous.
