Description
String introduces us to Yoon-Sook Namgung, a 25-year-old Korean-American woman with the intriguing ability to see two types of strings connecting various people. The first is bright blue and reaches between sexual partners. The second string—dark black—stretches between murderers and their victims.
If you have a murder that needs solving, Yoon can help. Worried your partner is cheating on you? Yoon can literally see the connections. Yoon’s life—for all the drama and constant TMI—is good, at least until the day she notices a string, a black string, connected to… herself!
This means she’ll either soon murder someone, or be murdered herself! So…dang. Which one?
