The Livestream

Riley Cade is one stream away from giving up. Her channel is dying, her rent is overdue, and even her loyal viewers can't save her from slipping into online obscurity. But during a routine late night stream, Riley's entire stream freezes and another stream has taken the stage. It's a grainy, green tinted security camera footage. Her chat thinks it's a stunt for popularity, but Riley knows it isn't. When the victim turns up on the local news the next morning, her channel explodes with views, theories, and thousands of new followers. And it happens again. And again. Each appearance is more personal, more targeted, and more impossible to explain. Someone is using Riley's stream as their stage. As police begin to suspect her involvement, and her audience debated whether she's a mastermind or a victim, Riley races to uncover who is injecting the crimes into her broadcast. But every clue points to her own life, her own home, and the people she trusts the most. The final stream is coming. And this time, Riley might not be behind the camera.
