'Deeply empathetic and profoundly unsettling, this is contemporary crime fiction at its finest' - Dinuka McKenzie

Corinne Gray is a woman whose life is falling apart. When probationary detective Kyle Nazarian unexpectedly knocks on her door on a rainy morning, she knows why. He wants to talk about her son, Ben. This is her chance to finally explain how her sweet-natured child – who loved history and dreamed of swimming for Olympic Gold – grew up to do the unthinkable. What really happened to Ben? And could anyone have prevented it?

Desperate for justice, Corinne has poured herself into uncovering the sinister figures behind her son's actions and the shadowy online communities that prey on vulnerable young people. Kyle, meanwhile, is grappling with his own personal crisis both at home and at work. Torn between his duties and a growing sympathy for Corinne, Kyle must decide how far he's willing to go to help her.

We Need to Talk About Kevin meets None of This Is True in this shattering and provocative psychological thriller that dives into the darkest corners of the internet and the powerful bonds between parents and children, from the bestselling author of Dark Mode.

Oh My Goodness Ashley has done it again. 😱

Like Follow Die is the latest tech noir from Ashley, & has been released exclusively on audible and narrated by Claudia Karvan, Laurence Boxhall, Ryan Corr and a full cast.

Like Follow Die hits very close to home, especially if you are a parent. It makes you sit up & pay attention. It makes you question your parenting style & wonder if you’d pick up the signs of your child being influenced online. Ashley has a way of putting these tech issues in the forefront of your mind, & force difficult conversations around the dinner table.

Whilst I predicted a couple of twists, my jaw still hit the floor multiple times towards the end as the story unravelled and the true impact of one lost little boy was revealed.

If you loved Dark Mode, this is for you! It’s a continuation of the reality of the internet. Highly recommend!

The audible cast were amazing - I loved the different narrators for different characters & the way Ashley intertwined police and news interviews.

All the stars for you my friend 👏🏻 I can’t wait to see what you come up with next.

A story so relevant to today's society. A reminder of the power of social media on the minds of young people, and the power of a mother's love.

Engaging, confronting and relevant.

Really liked the different narrators. A well-written & engaging novel. Lots of twists that kept me guessing until the end.

Great narration of a gripping story

With a world of influencers wanting their voice to be heard most, and the endless possibilities that the ripple effect that could come from each strong opinion, this book shook me to my core. As a mother of a son entering his teen years (and two girls not far behind him, and they lost their father to an accident), the fear I have about those who influence my children was just amplified. Even though I enjoyed listening and was hooked in, I am now more determined to continue to be diligent with my children as they enter the online space as they grow older (even though it is fictional), it really makes you think!! Just wow!! Thank you!

Definitely makes you think!

Ashley Kalagian Blunt is the uncontested QUEEN of the psychological cyber-noir thriller genre!!

As was the case with Cold Truth; Like, Follow, Die kept me on my toes and had me constantly making comparisons between the characters on the page and real life.

I think the thing AKB nails so well, is tapping into the fears that we all have surrounding our (and our children’s!) unlimited access to the world wide web and how it is impacting our society as a whole to constantly be so connected (and disconnected!) to others.

I especially thought it was eerie to find that I both sympathised and saw the logical steps as Ben fell down the “incel rabbit hole”, and just how easily confirmation bias validated everything he believed (as a mum of three boys... Big eek!).

Our young detective... Well.. I really just wanted to give him (and his wife!) a GIANT hug!

Ominous, conflicting, gripping.
