"description": "I have a mouth, but I mustn't speak;\nEars, but I mustn't hear;\nEyes, but I mustn't see.\n\n1800, Joseon (Korea). Homesick and orphaned sixteen-year-old Seol is living out the ancient curse: \u201cMay you live in interesting times.\u201d Indentured to the police bureau, she\u2019s been tasked with assisting a well-respected young inspector with the investigation into the politically charged murder of a noblewoman.\n\nAs they delve deeper into the dead woman's secrets, Seol forms an unlikely bond of friendship with the inspector. But her loyalty is tested when he becomes the prime suspect, and Seol may be the only one capable of discovering what truly happened on the night of the murder.\n\nBut in a land where silence and obedience are valued above all else, curiosity can be deadly.\n\nJune Hur's elegant and haunting debut The Silence of Bones is a bloody tale perfect for fans of Kerri Maniscalco and Ren\u00e9e Ahdieh.",
