    I recommend this book. It's a story about the male and female protagonists subduing vengeful spirits. It's suspenseful and thrilling, with crime-solving elements. The plot doesn't drag, and the story flows well. The male protagonist is devoted and powerful, while the female protagonist is intelligent, genuine, and not a saint. There are no misunderstandings or those annoying "green tea" characters. The supporting characters' teamwork is also excellent.
