PRE-ORDER KYLIE LEE BAKER'S NEXT ADDICTIVE HORROR JAPANESE GOTHIC
'Haunted, absurd, terrifying, ridiculous . . . This book shook me in all the best ways' GRADY HENDRIX
'Gory' PAUL TREMBLAY
'Bat Eater will swoop in like a bat out of hell, swallow you whole and leave no crumbs' ALICE SLATER
'Easily one of the most exciting and unique books I've read in years' ERIC LAROCCA

Cora Zeng is a crime scene cleaner. But the bloody messes don't bother her, not when she's already witnessed the most horrific thing possible: her sister being pushed in front of a train.

But the killer was never caught, and Cora is still haunted by his last words: bat eater.

These days, nobody can reach Cora: not her aunt who wants her to prepare for the Hungry Ghost Festival, not her weird colleagues, and especially not the slack-jawed shadow lurking around her doorframe. After all, it can't be real - can it?

After a series of unexplained killings in Chinatown, Cora believes that someone might be targeting East Asian women, and something might be targeting Cora herself.

Soon, she will learn . . . you can't just ignore hungry ghosts.
