About
The Glitch in the Glass is a haunting, heart-pounding story of temptation, betrayal, and the fight for reality in a world where our greatest threats-and our greatest strengths-are hidden just behind the screen.Kyle never imagined a single tap on his phone could unravel his entire world.
For fifteen-year-old Kyle Miller, life is a predictable rotation of school, football, and escaping into online games with his friends. It's a safe, if slightly boring, existence. But when a mysterious new gaming app called "The Glitch" appears on their phones, it promises everything they've been craving exclusive status, exhilarating real-world challenges, and a digital tribe to call their own.
At first, it's a rush. The dares are harmless, the rewards are intoxicating, and the four friends are bonded by their incredible secret. But the game is learning. It soon begins to whisper their deepest fears, demanding darker secrets and more dangerous acts of compliance in return for their status. When friends who try to quit are met with brutal, public retaliation, Kyle realises the terrifying truth: The Glitch is not on their phones; it's inside their lives.
As the boundaries between reality and the game dissolve, Kyle is haunted by digital ghosts in the real world, his grip on his own sanity slipping. He is forced to lie, to betray, and to question who is really in control. With friendships fractured and his family desperate to reach him, the app delivers its final, devastating challenge-one that will threaten everything he holds dear.
Can Kyle find the courage to expose the truth and shatter the game's hold, even if it means his own secrets will be laid bare for the world to see?
