Half A World Away

By: Linnane, Bill

She had the world at her feet until it shattered beneath her.
At just 22, Anna Lim is a global icon-chart-topping singer, viral dancer, the face of a generation raised on screens. To her millions of followers, she's everything: flawless, fearless, infinite. But behind the spotlight, Anna is unraveling. Haunted by grief, drowning in noise, she's become a ghost in her own life.

Then-she vanishes.

No warning. No goodbye. Just a silence loud enough to shake the world.

While headlines scream and fans demand answers, Anna slips through the cracks of fame, surfacing in Boston under a borrowed name and a secondhand coat. She trades stadium lights for campus hallways, viral videos for vanished posts, and begins a life no one sees. But running from the world doesn't quiet the voices inside.

As her past closes in and new relationships challenge her fragile sense of self, Anna must confront the question she's long feared:
If you disappear, but no one truly knew you in the first place-were you ever really there at all?

Raw, poetic, and deeply human, Half a World Away is a story about fame, identity, and the fight to be seen on your own terms.
