The Twitter Crush - Hardcover

by Kristin McTiernan (Author)

2017. The year Twitter banned dissent, influencers self-censored to survive, and one ghostwriter got rich peddling the feminism he secretly despised

Jackson Reed has made millions ghostwriting mediocre books for women's empowerment brands. The BS manifestos that made his clients famous have made him something of a "queenmaker" in the literary world, even as publishers pass on every project he tries to publish under his own name.

After his latest client's book goes blockbuster, their celebration takes an unexpected turn-a one-time session of knocking boots after the launch party. But the afterglow quickly fades when multiple podcasters and YouTubers who are critical of Jackson's client vanish without a trace.

Drawing on his military police background, Jackson launches his own investigation, building a case file from DMs, texts, tweets, and long-buried livestreams. He realizes he doesn't know a damn thing about the woman he spent six months interviewing. Risking his reputation and fortune, Jackson searches for his client's true identity and the bodies she's left behind. The Marines taught him one unbreakable code: never leave a man behind-even if it means becoming the next target.

Caught between exposing the truth and protecting his lucrative career, Jackson faces impossible choices as the boundaries between professional ethics and personal safety collapse. If he reveals what he knows, he'll destroy his career and the empire he helped build.

If he remains silent, more men might disappear. And he might be next.
