Don’t underestimate an older woman. Hornclaw may be in her sixties, but she is capable of murder. The contract killer has isolated herself, with just her dog, Deadweight, for company. She is what drew me to the novel The Old Woman with the Knife, by Gu Byeong-mo, which I have just translated into English.
