Synopsis: In this debut thriller perfect for fans of Bunny and Yellowface, a young woman steps into her deceased twin&’s influencer life, only to discover dark secrets hidden behind her social media façade. Julie Chan has nothing. Her twin sister has everything. Except a pulse. Julie Chan, a supermarket cashier with nothing to lose, finds herself thrust into the glamorous yet perilous world of her late twin sister, Chloe VanHuusen, a popular influencer. Separated at a young age, the identical twins were polar opposites and rarely spoke, except for one viral video that Chloe initiated (Finding My Long-Lost Twin And Buying Her A House #EMOTIONAL). When Julie discovers Chloe&’s lifeless body under mysterious circumstances, she seizes the chance to live the life she&’s always envied. Transforming into Chloe is easier than expected. Julie effortlessly adopts Chloe&’s luxurious influencer life, complete with designer clothes, a meticulous skincare routine, and millions of adoring followers. However, Julie soon realizes that Chloe&’s seemingly picture-perfect life was anything but. Haunted by Chloe&’s untimely death and struggling to fit into the privileged influencer circle, Julie faces mounting challenges during a weeklong island retreat with Chloe&’s exclusive group of influencer friends. As events spiral out of control, Julie uncovers the sinister forces that may have led to her sister&’s demise and realizes she might be the next target.
