Bat Eater by Kylie Lee Baker | Paperback

From Our Thriller Box
 
📖 About this Book
Bat Eater follows Cora Zeng, a crime-scene cleaner working in New York City’s Chinatown during the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic. She is already carrying the trauma of witnessing her sister being pushed in front of a train, while the killer’s final words, “bat eater,” continue to haunt her.
Then Cora begins noticing a disturbing pattern among the crime scenes she cleans: East Asian women are being murdered, strange bat carcasses are appearing, and something supernatural seems to be following her. As the Hungry Ghost Festival approaches, grief, racism, violence, and Chinese folklore begin colliding in increasingly terrifying ways.
 
❤️ Why Sumaia Recommends It
This is much more than a straightforward thriller. It mixes horror, mystery, grief, cultural folklore, and social commentary in a way that feels genuinely unsettling.
What makes it especially effective is the atmosphere. Cora is dealing with very real human cruelty while also questioning whether the ghosts around her are real. That combination makes the story disturbing in several different ways, because apparently one source of horror was simply not enough for humanity.
