Rear Window meets The Ring in this sinister YA thriller, in which a teen girl witnesses the livestreamed murder of a popular online streamer by a paranormal entity . . . and could be its next victim.

After surviving a car accident that claimed the life of her best friend, Teresa is now terrified to leave the safety of her bedroom. Since then, her only solace and window to the outside world has been the online community she found through streaming.

But one night, the safe world Teresa created starts to break down. A shadowy figure appears in the background of her favorite's streamer's video, and his behavior mysteriously changes over the next few days before he dies in front of thousands of viewers. Teresa finds herself at the center of a life-and-death investigation as the world tries to figure out what or who this figure could be . . . especially as it begins appearing in the other people's streams, compelling them to "open the door" and let it in—including Teresa’s own. In order to save herself and the rest of the internet from this relentless entity, Teresa must venture outside of the mental and physical walls she’s created. But will she be able to conquer her fears before anyone else loses their life?

★ "An addictive, anxiety-provoking YA thriller . . . This unsettling third-person narrative includes mixed media, creating a fully immersive, incessantly creepy experience." —Shelf Awareness, starred review

★ "A book that gets readers in its clutches and refuses to let them go; many will want to consume it in one sitting." —SLJ, starred review

"Interspersed with transcripts from livestreams, online threads, video comments, and text messages, the narrative brings the action from the first chapter. Through haunting scenes, the author builds the tension, leaving readers questioning whether anywhere is truly safe. A thrilling, claustrophobic horror that explores the danger of a ghostly online presence." —Kirkus Reviews

"Romasco-Moore perfectly captures the irreverent and intentionally inscrutable spirit of today's internet, telling a thoroughly terrifying and viscerally modern ghost story that explores themes of grief, identity, belonging, and the double-edged nature of social media." —Booklist

"In this original paranormal horror novel by Romasco-Moore, readers will root for Teresa as the protagonist unearths an untapped well of smarts and bravery in her bid for survival." —Publishers Weekly

"I think this story possessed me? I couldn’t stop reading it. I might still be reading it. It opened a door in my head and I haven’t been the same since. Tense and claustrophobic, an incredible experiment in voice and form."
—Nino Cipri, author of Dead Girls Don’t Dream and Finna

"Startlingly familiar to every Gen Zer who’s ever gotten too close to their phone screen, Romasco-Moore brings horror into the digital age with a breakneck book that will keep you turning page after page."
—Andrew Joseph White, New York Times bestselling author of Hell Followed With Us and The Spirit Bares Its Teeth.
