The Borrowed Grave

In the neon-drenched, rain-slicked streets of Haedong, two brothers in all but blood run the hottest nightclub in the Federal District. Park Jun-seo, an orphan who clawed his way out of the gutter, has spent a decade living in the shadow of his magnetic partner Choi Min-ho. When the empire they built begins to crack under the weight of betrayal, Jun-seo executes a masterpiece of identity theft: a murder disguised as a favor, a body disposed of as an act of friendship. Told in Ellroy's staccato style, this is a brutal tale of envy, erased selves, and the deadly lie that we can ever truly become someone else.
