"Minh creates a nonstop social media frenzy amid a rich cyberpunk landscape in this vivid debut."
-Publishers Weekly

Imagine a near future where social-media influencers are given their own city, a massive riff on Las Vegas set in the plains of central America called Eutopia.

There, the world's top influencers compete in a dog-eat-dog ecosystem of likes, trends, comments, and advertising that's half guerilla marketing, half guerilla warfare. Against this backdrop, a has-been Hollywood director and an investigative journalist race to uncover the relationship between a rising tide of violence and corporate corruption.
