Description:

Fleeing from her family’s mounting debt, Lin escapes Taiwan to seek refuge in her younger brother’s Berlin apartment. The two haven’t spoken in years, but the unexpected reunion allows them to revisit their shared childhood memories—especially of their mother, who ran a small-town hair salon with a steady stream of mysterious customers. Weaving through these memories, THE GOOD PEOPLE UPSTAIRS delves into the gray areas of human morality, ultimately revealing the shocking truth behind Lin’s brother’s flee from home with a jaw-dropping twist.
