The groundbreaking Korean phenomenon that Entertainment Weekly called "The Hunger Games meets Squid Game" continues with even more dark secrets and shocking surprises. The temperature is rising and the truth at the center of Chobahm's frozen world will be revealed in the final installment of this epic dystopian saga.
Chobahm's perfect life in Snowglobe came crashing down when she discovered the truth about Haeri; the girl she watched faithfully on television was far from perfect. And the TV family, revered by millions, was nothing more than an illusion created by the Yibonn Media corporation. Nothing is as it seems in the carefully curated programs released from Snowglobe.
But revealing the lies behind the Yibonn Media group was only the first crack in Snowglobe. Suddenly, the heat is rising inside the domed utopia—and with the soaring temperatures, come new secrets.
Chobahm learned that you can't believe what you see in Snowglobe, but the millions of viewers watching have no idea what the truth is, so when footage emerges of Chobahm committing a murder, she knows someone's out to get her. The only person who can help to clear her name is no other than the disgraced Yibonn heir, Bonwhe. And Bonwhe knows better than anyone that enemies exist everywhere in Snowglobe. Sometimes you can't even trust yourself.
"The story is complex, and the heavier themes are handled with a light touch, allowing Chobahm's strength, intelligence, and compassion to shine. This volume is accessible to new readers but is best appreciated by those familiar with the series opener. Layered, distinctive, and memorable." —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
