The bestselling author of The Party and The Arrangement returns with a twisted tale of fame, obsession, and the dark side of social media.
Camryn Lane is living her dream: after years of struggle and rejection, her first novel has finally been published. She's on top of the world – until she receives a disturbing email from an unknown sender.
Rattled, Camryn swallows the sick feeling and resolves to put the missive out of her mind. But when she checks her ratings online, she finds an aggressive one-star review, and soon Camryn's book is flooded with negative reviews and publicity. Could the reviewer be the same person who sent the ugly email? And why do they want to ruin her?
As the online harassment creeps into Camryn's personal life, she vows to find out who's behind it. Is it really a disgruntled reader, or could it be someone she knows? When the abuse escalates, Camryn will need to unmask the enemy so intent on destroying her – before it turns deadly. Robyn Harding is the author of numerous international bestsellers, including The Party, The Arrangement and The Drowning Woman. She has also written and executive produced an independent film.

'Everything Robyn Harding writes turns to gold, and her newest high-octane thriller, The Haters, is no exception. A dark, twisted heart-stopper, Harding has written a cautionary tale about the dangers of engaging with online trolls and its life-altering consequences. Filled with Harding's signature sleight of hand, The Haters grabbed me at page one and kept me blazing through the pages until the final jaw-dropping page.' 'Time and time again, Robyn Harding has proven herself a talented writer with an innate ability to spin a complex tale. Those skills are on full display with her latest novel, The Haters, which somehow manages to be both terrifying and thoughtful.' 'A searing, riveting, razor-sharp examination of internet stalking and online bullying.' 'Suspenseful and affecting, The Haters is a page-turning portrayal of an author who thinks she's about to witness her dreams come true, but gets caught up in an ever-worsening nightmare. Robyn Harding spins a twisty tale that will keep you guessing until its wholly satisfying ending.' 'A menacing page turner with so many brilliant red herrings. I flew through it and was wrongfooted many times. A clever, cautionary, and twisted tale.' 'Harding is a master of the psychological thriller. Loaded with relatable characters, topical themes, and hairpin twists – not to mention a highly entertaining story-within-a-story – The Haters is a terrific read and reminiscent of the best of Lisa Jewell!' 'The Haters by Robyn Harding had me hooked (and terrified) from the opening page. No wonder, because this psychological thriller about the dangers of how we handle social media is clever, propulsive, full of truly gasp-worthy moments, and will have you thinking twice before posting anything online again. All the love – and zero hate – for this twisted, suspenseful tale. The Haters is my favourite Harding novel yet.'
