Description
She wrote fiction for a living—until her own life became the plot twist.When bestselling author Amy Willows vanishes without a trace, her disappearance is written off as a publicity stunt—until her daughter, Rylie, a struggling journalist, uncovers a digital breadcrumb trail leading to an enigmatic social media group her mother recently joined.As Rylie plunges deeper into the group's shadowy corners, she realizes Amy wasn't just researching her next standalone novel—she was reliving it. With a disgruntled agent fuming over Amy's decision to abandon her wildly successful series, and clues that suggest the standalone may be more confession than fiction, Rylie finds herself unraveling a twisted narrative written in secrets and stained in truth.How far would one author go for research?

3.5 ⭐️ | This book was a twisty dark read that kept me hooked pretty much from start to finish, trying to figure out what was going on. I enjoyed the writing and the story, however, the FMC (Rylie) drove me nuts. She was all over the place. For a journalist, she wasn’t a big one for facts…
