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.

From Sunday Times bestselling author Kylie Lee Baker comes a sharp and propulsive horror thriller, perfect for fans of Mexican Gothic and She is a Haunting.

Cora Zeng is a crime scene cleaner, washing away the remains of brutal murders and suicides in Chinatown. 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.

Before fleeing the scene, the murderer whispered two words: bat eater.

Months pass, the killer is never caught, and Cora can barely keep herself together. She pushes away all feelings, disregards the bite marks that appear on her coffee table, and won’t take her aunt’s advice to prepare for the Hungry Ghost Festival, when the gates of hell open.

Cora tries to ignore the rising dread in her stomach, even when she and her weird co-workers begin finding bat carcasses at their crime scene clean-ups. But Cora can’t ignore the fact that all their recent clean-ups have been the bodies of East Asian women.

Soon Cora will learn, you can’t just ignore hungry ghosts.

PUBLISHER: Harlequin Audio
DATE PUBLISHED: April 29, 2025
NUMBER OF PAGES: 9
FORMAT: Audible
DESCRIPTION:
In this explosive horror novel, a woman is haunted by inner trauma, hungry ghosts, and a serial killer as she confronts the brutal violence experienced by East Asians during the pandemic.

Cora Zeng is a crime scene cleaner, washing away the remains of brutal murders and suicides in Chinatown. But none of that seems so terrible when she’s already witnessed the most horrific thing possible: her sister, Delilah, being pushed in front of a train.

Before fleeing the scene, the murderer shouted two words: bat eater.

So the bloody messes don’t really bother Cora—she’s more bothered by the germs on the subway railing, the bare hands of a stranger, the hidden viruses in every corner, and the bite marks on her coffee table. Of course, ever since Delilah was killed in front of her, Cora can’t be sure what's real and what’s in her head.

She pushes away all feelings and ignores the advice of her aunt to prepare for the Hungry Ghost Festival, when the gates of hell open. But she can't ignore the dread in her stomach as she keeps finding bat carcasses at crime scenes, or the scary fact that all her recent cleanups have been the bodies of East Asian women.

As Cora will soon learn, you can’t just ignore hungry ghosts.

For fans of Stephen Graham Jones and Gretchen Felker-Martin, Bat Eater and Other Names for Cora Zeng is a wildly original, darkly humorous, and subversive contemporary novel from a striking new voice in horror.

Bump.

Another bump.

Bumping again.

Bump.

1-3, 8, 10 done.
4 won't let regular librarians edit cover art, to my knowledge. The following message has replaced the standard edit/delete image link: "Book cover image set by ŷ������. Contact ŷ������ Customer Service to request an update."

Thanks for your help, Amanda. Bumping for the other entries that still need to be completed.

Bumping again for #5-7 and #9.

ŷ������ librarians: if you are unable to correct the issues with #6-7 due to the disastrous new policy surrounding Kindle and Audible editions, please let me know so that I can contact staff to inform them that they have to carry out Kindle/Audible edits and inform them of the errors that need to be fixed.

Another bump.

As I understand it, ŷ������ librarians can edit some details on audible editions but can no longer add them, so I'll be going to Staff to get #6-7 corrected. A librarian still needs to correct #5 and #9.

Another bump.
