Synopsis

Ten years ago, Theodora “Teddy” Angstrom’s older sister, Angie, went missing.

Her case remains unsolved. Now Teddy’s father, Mark, has killed himself.

Unbeknownst to Mark’s family, he had been active in a Reddit community fixated on Angie, and Teddy can’t help but fall down the same rabbit hole.

Teddy’s investigation quickly gets her in hot water with her gun-nut boyfriend, her long-lost half brother, and her colleagues at the prestigious high school where she teaches English. Further complicating matters is Teddy’s growing obsession with Mickey, a charming amateur sleuth who is eerily keen on helping her solve the case.

Bewitched by Mickey, Teddy begins to lose her moral compass. As she struggles to reconcile new information with old memories, her erratic behavior reaches a fever pitch, but she won’t stop until she finds Angie—or destroys herself in the process.

A biting critique of the internet’s voyeurism, Rabbit Hole is an outrageous and heart-wrenching character study of a mind twisted by grief—and a page-turning mystery that’s as addictive as a late-night Reddit binge.

“A pitch-black story about ambiguous loss, and a blazingly feminist take on the self-destructive pull of the internet. And it’s poignant. And it’s unflinching. Kate Brody is a star.”—Kate Reed Petty, author of True Story

4 stars in reality but giving it 5 because someone specifically requested an ARC of this book about a woman becoming obsessed with a reddit thread and then gave it 2 stars because he didn't like how much social media was in it and I took that personally......more

A perfect parable for true crime lovers everywhere! When you go looking... are the answers you find really ever worth it? Rabbit Hole is a prime example of what happens when you allow yourself to be waylaid by something you don't really want answers to. Your life, relationships, and job might start t......more

Goodreads review by Kate

When I read the blurb I thought this was supposed to be more thriller. Teddy Angstrom is a woman trying to discover where her sister disappeared to ten years previously in the wake of her father's suicide. Sounds good. A little nod to Updike's Rabbit Angstrom right? However this book is not a thrille......more
