Julie Chan takes the place of her late influencer twin sister after she finds her dead in her sister’s apartment. They were separated when they were young when their parents died. Chile was adopted by the Van Huusen while Julie was adopted by their Aunt. Julie struggles with the knowledge she doesn’t know about her sister’s life as a belladonna.
The concept for this book was really intriguing! About 70% of the way though it was hard to tell if it was another one of Julie’s nightmares or her current reality. It gave that something was off feeling which was later affirmed by Isla.
