[New Release] A Family's Incompetent Head of Household Murder Plot View original image


Each family member devises an elaborate murder plan to kill their father, who fails to fulfill his role as the head of the household. However, the full story unfolds when a burglar who breaks into the house one day meets a ‘futile death.’ This work stands out for its well-structured composition, laying foreshadowing that hints at two possible conclusions, stimulating the reader’s imagination. The author revealed that the story was inspired by the Sangju poisoning incident. Additionally, the author stated, “The most challenging part of this novel was the detective uncovering how Kim Juhan stole 63 grams of cyanide from his workplace. Although simple, the author needed a detail that would firmly imprint him as the culprit, and after three days of contemplation, this plot was created.”
