Book synopsis

"She's everything you ever wanted. And she's finally coming for you."

Chloe is a content moderator for a global streaming giant, a digital janitor scrubbing the internet's darkest corners. Her world changes when she's assigned to Mimi-Chan, a viral VTuber whose porcelain anime avatar has captured the hearts of millions.

But the avatar is glitching.

Between the frames of Mimi-Chan's upbeat dances, Chloe sees something else: a distorted, impossible anatomy that defies digital logic. Soon, the 'jokes' Mimi-Chan tells during her streams start coming true. Obsessive fans are dying in accidents that mirror the avatar's glitches, and Mimi-Chan knows secrets about Chloe that haven't been shared online.

The idol isn't a human performer in a suit. She is a digital tulpa-an entity fed by the collective obsession of her audience. Now, she is ready to cross the boundary from the screen into the room.

A bone-chilling descent into digital madness. Idol explores the toxic void of parasocial relationships and the terrifying truth that some ghosts are born from code.
