Description
An electric psychological thriller about what happens when one of the first child stars of the social media age grows up . . . and goes missing.
Hazel Davis is drifting. Her career has stalled out, and she lives in the shadow of her younger sister, @evelyn, a mega- popular influencer who rocketed to fame as the child star of their family’s viral YouTube channel. Now, at eighteen, Evie has a multimillion-dollar career and everyone wants a piece of her—Evie’s followers, her YouTuber boyfriend and influencer frenemies, and even her opportunistic mother.
Ten years older, Hazel has nothing to do with the family business. But when Evie vanishes during an unsettling livestream, theories about her disappearance tear through the internet and Hazel must throw herself into the darkest parts of her sister’s world to uncover the truth.
Addictive and thought-provoking, Such a Bad Influence offers a razor- sharp commentary on influencer culture and social media.
