When a struggling writer asks an AI chatbot to write her a novel on par with her favorite thriller, she finds herself trapped in the blood-soaked pages of the original--from the New York Times bestselling author of the Reese's Book Club pick We Were Never Here. All Sarah Remlinger wants is to be a writer, but so far, her fiction has gone over like Tesla's Cybertruck--no one's into it. She can barely contain her envy of Monica Moore, the author of Still Dead, a blockbuster thriller that broke all the rules by killing off the protagonist halfway through. Try as she might, she just can't get her own ideas to live up to Moore's work. Then Sarah scores early access to WrAIterly, a mysterious new chatbot that promises to help her get the publishing career of her dreams. One night, in a moment of desperation, she asks it to write her a new manuscript in the vein of Still Dead. (It's not like she'll use whatever it generates.) Her laptop flickers, the power goes out, and she thinks that's the end of it . . . until she wakes up bound and bloody in the trunk of a moving car--a scene that's terrifyingly familiar. It's the first page of the lauded thriller. Did she trigger an alternate reality? Is she experiencing a new form of AI psychosis? All Sarah knows is that, chapter by chapter, she's fighting for her life inside the dark, twisted novel she's always loved--and if she can't escape, in twenty-four short hours, she'll meet the protagonist's untimely end. To survive, Sarah must do what she's never been able to do before, what drove her to try the AI chatbot in the first place: take control of the narrative and rewrite her own fate. Delete Your Account is a smart and satirical speculative thriller about art, originality, and the battle to hold onto our humanity in the face of almighty tech companies racing to conquer our minds . . . and maybe even the world.
