Dark Mode - Ashley Kalagian Blunt

Once you’re online, there’s nowhere to hide

Is it paranoia – or is someone watching?

Coincidence?

As more murders shake the city and she’s increasingly drawn out from hiding, Reagan is forced to confront her greatest fear.

She’s been found.

A riveting psychological thriller drawn from true events, Dark Mode delves into the terrifying reality of the dark web, and the price we pay for surrendering our privacy one click at a time.
