The case

Every control says the customers are real.

Every control says the customers are real. Every record agrees. Then hundreds of millions of dollars begin moving at once.

A forensic team is brought into a private bank on the eve of a regulatory examination. The transfers came through trusted devices, valid credentials, established relationships, and successful identity checks. There is no obvious breach — and no clean answer for who is actually behind the accounts.

As the investigation follows the chain from payment systems and biometric verification to the data institutions use to decide who a person is, a more unsettling possibility emerges: nothing in the record has to be fake for the conclusion to be wrong.

LIVENESS is a forensic crime thriller about identity, evidence, and what happens when trust itself becomes an attack surface.
