An island festival shaped by the feed

An invitation to an unknown music festival sets the stage for a psychological horror story about celebrity, influence, and the power of social media. Among the guests are Cassidy, a newly sober nepo baby, and Edie, a codependent model. After a sudden death whose circumstances remain unclear, people begin disappearing and returning changed, while Cassidy and Edie encounter memories that do not match events. The premise links the island’s unsettling shifts to the guests’ feeds, making the algorithm part of the danger and the mystery. The story’s central questions concern what can be trusted when both shared events and personal memories seem open to manipulation.

Book overview

One thousand lucky celebrities and influencers receive an email invite to an island music festival that no one has ever heard of, with a mere 24 hours to commit to the unknown or refuse what could be the opportunity of a lifetime. Among them are newly sober nepo baby Cassidy and a codependent model named Edie. It's the party of a lifetime.

 

Until a sudden death turns the festival on its head

 

Or it would, if anyone knew exactly what happened. Those who saw it firsthand suspect a cover-up, while those who didn't disregard it as a prank.

 

But shortly thereafter, things on the island start to change. Guests go missing, only to return acting off. Cassidy and Edie remember things that didn't happen.

 

Soon they realize their social media feeds are warping their surroundings, and the only way they can leave the island alive is by gaming the algorithm and uncovering the secrets behind its otherworldly power.
