A gripping domestic thriller examining the terrifying depths of our social media obsessions. You can't stop watching her. Violet Young is a hugely popular journalist-turned-mummy-influencer, with three children, a successful husband and a million subscribers on YouTube who tune in daily to watch her everyday life unfold. Until the day she's no longer there. But one day she disappears from the online world - her entire social media presence deleted overnight, with no explanation. Has she simply decided that baring her life to all online is no longer a good idea, or has something more sinister happened to Violet? But do you really know who Violet is? Her fans are obsessed with finding out the truth, but their search quickly reveals a web of lies, betrayal, and shocking consequences...

This book is nothing like its misleading premise. It's about three women who either desperately want to get pregnant or who are unhappy moms whining because a mommy blogger influencer has gone offline. It's a miserable, sad read.
Also, it employs an odd gimmick: the author inserted the acknowledgements into the novel's action! Very jarring. You read an intro page from the stalker of the blogger, jumping right in the action (supposedly), turn the page, and the author is thanking everyone for supporting her for writing her novel and assuring readers they are going to love it, for two pages worth! Then Chapter One starts. Rather off putting start to what turns out to be a misleading and depressing book about fertility, not at all a thriller.
