Idolized

Everyone loves Cha Yiseul.

At nineteen years old, she's Korea's favorite idol-the beautiful center of the world's hottest girl group. Fans worship her. Companies fight to sign her. The media calls her an angel.

But angels don't leave bodies behind.

Behind the flashing cameras, sold-out arenas, and carefully rehearsed smiles, Yiseul lives a second life no one knows exists. A life filled with blood, secrets, drugs, gang connections, and dangerous people who would destroy her if the truth ever came out.

For years, she's managed to keep her two worlds separate.

Until a murder investigation begins closing in.

As detectives search for a killer hiding somewhere in Seoul, Yiseul finds herself caught between fame and freedom, obsession and desire, loyalty and betrayal. With every lie she tells, every secret relationship she hides, and every body left behind, the walls around her begin to crack.

Because no matter how brightly a star shines, darkness always follows.

And the higher she rises, the harder she'll fall.

The world may idolize Cha Yiseul.

But if they knew who she really was, they'd be terrified.
