Bamboo and Blood

In "Hidden Moon," the riveting sequel to "A Corpse in the Koryo," Inspector O returns to navigate the treacherous terrain of North Korean politics during a devastating famine in 1997. Tasked with hosting an Israeli agent and investigating the suspicious death of a diplomat's wife, O is cautioned to tread lightly around sensitive issues, particularly concerning missiles. As he delves deeper, he encounters a web of deceit that stretches from Pyongyang to Geneva, forcing him to confront unreliable allies and hidden dangers at every turn. James Church's masterful prose immerses listeners in a shadowy world of intrigue, where loyalty is scarce and peril is constant.
