Dead Air

SOME SECRETS ARE BETTER LEFT IN THE STATIC. Elena Vance is the voice of the night. As the host of The Silent Truth, a viral true-crime podcast, she provides a sanctuary for the anonymous to confess their darkest sins. She has built an empire on uncovering the secrets of strangers, all while burying the one truth she can't face: the night ten years ago when she locked the door on her sister, Sarah, and watched her vanish into the woods forever.
But during a live broadcast in the heart of a frozen December, the silence finally breaks. A distorted caller known only as "The Architect" hijacks the feed, playing a recording that shouldn't exist: Sarah's final, desperate plea for help. He doesn't just know Elena's past; he's watching her present through the studio's own security cameras. To save her sister's legacy and unmask a predator who has spent a decade "reconstructing" the lives of the lost, Elena must follow a trail of blood-stained ledgers and digital ghosts from the high-tech penthouses of the Capital to the flooded tunnels of the riverfront.
In a world where power can rewrite reality and faces can be carved into new identities, Elena is about to learn that the "Guest List" is more than a file-it's a death warrant. The signal is live. The whole world is watching. And the truth is the most dangerous thing on the air.
