Samantha Miller is everything her fans want to be. Her three million followers hang on her every word - she's an oracle, telling them how to be their best, true selves.

To promote her new number-one bestseller, she's written an essay about her sexual awakening as a teenager with her best friend, Lisa. She's never told a soul, now she's telling the world.

But Lisa's memory of that night is far darker.

It's Sam's word against Lisa's - so whose 'truth' is really a lie?

Idol Reviews

An absolute page turner; addictive and refreshingly twisted. * Cecelia Ahern *
By turns utterly gripping and unsettling, this gorgeously written novel is a fascinating look at the ills of influencer culture. A book for our times. * Lucy Foley *
IDOL is darkly delicious and asks important questions of fame, influence, self-help and what it really means when we click follow. Louise O'Neill is one of those rare authors whose writing grips you from the first page, but who also makes you think. I will read anything she writes. * Elizabeth Day *
Louise O'Neill steps into areas that lesser writers are daunted by. She is a pioneer. * Marian Keyes *
O'Neill continues to push at the murk around contemporary taboos, shining a compassionate and compelling light on what drives our appearance-obsessed society, marking us all as complicit. IDOL is a gripping, shocking read I could not put down. * Kiran Millwood Hargrave *
