Fiction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Julie Chan is Dead<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Toronto: Simon & Schuster Canada, 2025.
forthcoming April 2025<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Publisher’s Synopsis (From its website)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Julie Chan, a supermarket cashier with nothing to lose, finds herself thrust into the glamorous yet perilous world of her late twin sister, Chloe VanHuusen, a popular influencer. Separated at a young age, the identical twins were polar opposites and rarely spoke, except for one viral video that Chloe initiated (Finding My Long-Lost Twin And Buying Her A House #EMOTIONAL<\/em>). When Julie discovers Chloe\u2019s lifeless body under mysterious circumstances, she seizes the chance to live the life she\u2019s always envied.

Transforming into Chloe is easier than expected. Julie effortlessly adopts Chloe\u2019s luxurious influencer life, complete with designer clothes, a meticulous skincare routine, and millions of adoring followers. However, Julie soon realizes that Chloe\u2019s seemingly picture-perfect life was anything but.

Haunted by Chloe\u2019s untimely death and struggling to fit into the privileged influencer circle, Julie faces mounting challenges during a weeklong island retreat with Chloe\u2019s exclusive group of influencer friends. As events spiral out of control, Julie uncovers the sinister forces that may have led to her sister\u2019s demise and realizes she might be the next target.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
