RIAN IS A B*TCH

One lie can destroy a reputation. A thousand lies can destroy a life.Behind the screen, Rian is charming, helpful, and always in the right. Behind the lies is something far darker.After his brother's death, James Vale isn't looking for a fight. He's looking for answers - and for a way to keep moving through the six months of half-finished calls and folded eulogies that grief leaves behind. What he finds instead is a stranger who has spent years fabricating stories, running fake accounts, and turning people against each other for his own satisfaction - a man who has built an entire empire out of other people's pain.Rian stalks. He manipulates. He destroys. And when anyone gets close to the truth, he disappears behind the mask of mental illness and victimhood, daring them to be the one who attacks a man who's already suffering.Until James, his partner Priya, and three others scattered across three continents decide someone has to stop him.Told across a year of late-night calls, screenshotted evidence, and a group chat that becomes the only thing holding five strangers together, Rian Is a B*tch follows an unlikely team as they learn to build a case out of fragments - cross-referencing lies, tracing fake accounts back to a single source, and staying one step ahead of a man who always seems to know exactly what they're planning next.This is not just a story about social media. It's a story about manipulation, about the difference between a mask and the person wearing it, and about what it costs - and what it takes - when no one else can see the monster hiding in plain sight.Believe nothing. Trust no one.
