Summary

An 18-year-old high school girl, Yujeong, who had been missing, is found strangled in an abandoned building with no CCTV. The police investigate those close to her — her father, best friend, boyfriend, and school teacher — but all have solid alibis. Each chapter introduces a new suspect, and by unraveling their memories, the truth about Yujeong’s final days slowly emerges. Every time, a different person becomes the prime suspect, but the mystery remains. Meanwhile, a dark truth about those around her must never be revealed. The novel vividly depicts the environment of Korean high schools and the private struggles of parents with teenage children, exposing hidden sides of ordinary people. It is a gripping, one-sitting read — a hallmark of Jeong Haiyeon’s page-turning style.
