Bad Influence : The EXPLOSIVE, twisty, darkly funny new thriller that EVERYONE is talking about...

Two bored, obsessed teenagers break into and secretly live in influencers’ houses. But when they choose the wrong home, their twisted experiment turns deadly.

She and Less slip through Los Angeles’ glossy veneer: influencers, producers, pop stars, all so busy performing their perfect lives they don’t notice the shadows in their attics, the scratching in their walls.

What begins as a reckless adventure becomes a nightmare of lies, power … and murder…––––––‘Will Carver follows Kill Them With Kindness with another satirical look at the world we live in and he does it brilliantly.
