'De@th on Live' is set in the very near future, a future that seems so possible: a world in which young people broadcast their lives 24/7. Fighting for ratings and sponsors, they become more outlandish and take bigger risks in order to win big bucks. Jonah, a soldier, returns home on bereavement leave to discover that his brother's death wasn't the accident it was reported as. He has just 72 hours to solve the mystery. Assuming his brother's identity, Jonah enters a world of voyeurism and exhibitionism that is as addictive as it is dangerous. Hungry for ratings and the approval of their followers, 'Channelers' engage in increasingly risky and self-destructive behaviour. By relaunching his brother's channel, will Jonah find the conspirators or will he lose himself? This thriller raises questions about the big brands and mega-companies that run the internet and is a fast-paced, glossy postcard to Generation X, Y and Z.
