What Amazon says:
Terenc Baily is about to be released from prison for breaking and entering, though investigators have long suspected him in the murders of six women. As his release date approaches, Bailey gets a surprise visit from Maddison Logan, a youn influencer with a huge social media follwoing. Hours later, Maddison disappears, and police suspect she's been kidnapped or worse. When they hit a wall in the investigation, the FBI reluctantly asks for Rachel Krall's help in finding the missing influencer. Maddison seems to only exist on social media - she has no family, no friends, and other than in her posts, most people have never seen her. Using a fake Instagram account, RAchel goes undercover to BuzzCon, a popular influencer conference, where she discovers a world of fierce rivalry that may have turned lethal. When police find the body of a woman with a tattoo of a snake eating its tall - identical to a tattoo Rachel had seen on Bailey's hand - the FBI must consider a chilling possibility: Bailey has an accomplice on the outside and a dangerous obsession with influencers, incluing Racehl Krall herself. Suddenly the target of a monster hiding in plain sight, Rachel is forced to confront the very real dangers that lurk in the dark corners of the internet.
This was a pretty good book. I read the first Rachel Krall book (The Night Swim) and enjoyed it as well. I listened to this book and honestly I felt that helped because these are books about a podcaster. She weaves her podcast episodes into the story, so audiobook works well for that story line. I like the Rachel character - she doesn't do anything overly stupid. I liked most of the characters in this book (main characters) and there is even a little love story happening in this one. Written well with a satisfying ending, I am glad I read this one.
