A razor-sharp debut thriller about what happens when one of the first child stars of the social media age grows up ā€¦ and goes missing.

Hazel Davis is drifting: newly unemployed, living in a city she hates, and significantly less successful than her infamous younger sister, Evie. Evie grew up online, having gone viral at age five in a daddy-daughter dance video. She had an Instagram following in elementary school, and brand sponsorships before she had a driverā€™s permit. Now sheā€™s a megapopular lifestyle influencer, with a million-dollar career at an age when few teens know what theyā€™re going to major in.

But to Hazel, @evelyn is just Evie, her beloved little sisterā€”and a kid who has been exploited for her entire childhood. Ten years older and spotlight-averse, Hazel has managed to dodge the family business, but sheā€™s deeply protective of Evie and skeptical of the way everyone seems to want a piece of her: Evieā€™s followers, her YouTuber boyfriend, her frenemies across the influencer industry.

So when Evie disappearsā€”in the middle of a live stream, during a brand-sponsored trip to Los Angelesā€”Hazel knows something is terribly wrong. Determined to find her sister, Hazel throws herself into the darkest parts of internet culture to untangle the threads of truth behind Evieā€™s disappearance. After all, Hazel knows Evie better than anyone else ā€¦ doesnā€™t she?

Internet fame, the allure of parasocial relationships, and some of our deepest cultural obsessions collide in this electric thriller by a debut writer to watch.
