From the author of Girl in the Rearview Mirror comes a stunning novel set in the high-stakes world of Silicon Valley.

It's a woman's world, isn't it?

Rhoda West has the world at her feet.

As the luminously charismatic CEO of Radical, a fast-growing start-up, Rhoda has built a wellness company whose core mission is the betterment of women's lives. Showcasing her cult products and her perfect life through her social media, Rhoda is the ultimate 'Radigal', encouraging her followers to be #bebetter, whilst driving her business to attain the billion-dollar unicorn status that she craves.

But just as Radical announces the latest fundraising round that will take it over the top, an anonymous twitter account begins revealing the company's secrets and starts questioning its beliefs and approach, and Rhoda herself.

Is Rhoda really the nurturing leader that she presents to the world, or a fraud on a mission to exploit the women she claims to want to help? As tensions rise and enemies present themselves, the only questions are how far will Rhoda go to fulfil her legacy and how far will her enemies go to destroy it.

Exploring themes of ambition, authenticity and female empowerment, this revealing thriller shines a light on the wellness world, and is perfect for fans of The Drop Out and Yellowface.
