In the rain-slicked suburbs of Westgate, live-streaming icon Amara Voss built an empire on empathy, her face a beacon against bullying. Her husband, journalist Leo Voss, believes he knows her soul—until a brutal school assault exposes a labyrinth of manipulation. Every trail of evidence loops back to his own home, and a single corrupted frame in a charity livestream reveals a fleeting, savage glee that no filter can hide. The ultimate reversal is not a stranger in a mask, but the predator who shares your bed.
