Publisher's summary

Two days after arriving in Iceland for a promotional trip, Instagram influencer Alabama Wood goes missing. With no leads, the Icelandic police start their investigation by focusing on the two influencers seemingly closest to Alabama on the trip: Celeste Reed, Alabama’s best friend of ten years, and Hollie Goodwin, fitness guru and Alabama's unwilling idol.

Celeste and Alabama have grown apart recently because Celeste has been too distracted by her five-year-old’s behavioral issues and her husband’s refusal to admit that there’s a problem. What Celeste doesn’t tell them is how she has been coping with these worries and how it involves Alabama in ways no one would guess.

On the outside, Hollie appears to have everything—the husband, the body, and over one million Instagram followers. In reality, however, Hollie came to Iceland to escape the implosion of her life behind the screen. The only person who suspected something amiss behind Hollie’s precisely filtered pictures is Alabama.

As secrets are revealed and loyalties are tested, debut author Nicole Hackett asks a vital question: do we control our online image, or does it control us?

Excellent Debut Novel!

This engaging story kept me on my toes! The characters are well-written and, like real people, are all dealing with their own issues, while trying to navigate other peoples’ issues in the backdrop of an Instagram thriller. It’s an A+ for me.

Also, the narration is fantastic!

Terrible…with a lack of ending

First of all, the book just ends. Maybe to leave room for a sequel but that will not be a book I read. Spoilers to follow but essentially this entire story is about a social media influencer who just wants to be friends w another influencer who she admires so she goes on this influencer retreat where she meets her and then is upset bc the chick doesn’t want to be friends w her or something and that leads her to basically fake her own death. And a side plot is the girls best friend (also on retreat and am influencer) kissed her husband once and regretted it, etc and I guess that adds to her faking her own death too?
Honestly I kept waiting for something to happen but all I got was, a girl didn’t want to be friends w someone and then someone kissed (not even slept w) her husband and this was all grounds to fake a death.
Just save your time and credit. I have more questions than answers for this one.
