An obsessive power struggle between an editor and her millennial intern takes a dangerous turn in this debut psychological thriller. To Katherine, twenty-four-year-old Lily Lunt embodies the typical "snowflake": soft, entitled, and eager to leverage her family's connections for success. Conversely, Lily views Katherine, a career woman in her early forties, as outdated and reliant on unpaid interns. When Lily becomes the new intern at Leadership magazine, where Katherine is editor in chief, her presence threatens Katherine's carefully constructed world. As their dynamic evolves, Katherine becomes obsessively drawn to Lily, who serves as a painful reminder of the potential Katherine once had. Is Katherine simply grappling with jealousy and paranoia as she faces middle age? Is Lily merely ambitious in the competitive publishing landscape, or is there a more sinister agenda fueled by the secrets they both harbor? Their rivalry intensifies, revealing a disturbing portrait of two women locked in a toxic generational conflict, each willing to go to extremes to prevail. This unsettling narrative delves into modern female rivalry, obsession, and deceit, offering a sharp commentary on the contemporary workplace and the complex dynamics between generations of women.
