The Glare: A Dark Web Thriller

After ten years of living on an isolated, tech-free ranch with her mother, sixteen-year-old Hedda is going back to the world of the Glare – her word for cell phones, computers, and tablets. Hedda was taught to be afraid of technology, afraid that it would get inside her mind and hurt her. But now she’s going to stay with her dad in California, where she was born, and she’s finally ready to be normal. She’s not going to go “off-kilter,” like her mom say…

Critics Review

“Immediately transfixing…. Harrison’s ability to lead suspicions astray, her spine-chilling descriptions, and a main character with a distinct character arc make for a worthwhile read for lovers of horror and beyond.”–Booklist, starred review“The expertly balanced reality-blurring storyline and strategic technology depictions seed psychological scares that will linger long after reading…. A chilling way to turn screen time into scream time.”–Kirkus, starred review“Extraordinarily compelling…. This is a novel with topical appeal for mystery collections; patient readers will be rewarded by the fantastic final act.”–School Library Journal“Ramped-up tension gives way to a nail-biting final showdown and neatly wrapped resolution, suitable for readers who like their techno-scares tempered by human sweetness.”–BCCBPraise for The Glare:

“The Glare is scary, brilliant, deeply gripping, and very very now. This is a new kind of ghost story, where we’re haunted by the digital phantoms that we ourselves created.”– Lev Grossman, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Magicians

“Thought-provoking and interesting…add this novel to your collection of modern fiction.”–School Library Connection
