Crime podcasters, teen detectives Ava, Carol, and Derik are about to take their most perplexing murder mystery yet, a 100-year-old cold case.

The intrepid detectives dive into another thrilling cold case for their podcast, this time investigating the century-old murder of Scarlett Newcastle, a psychic killed with her own crystal ball. The only suspect, con artist Samuel Caldwell, disappeared without a trace before he could be arrested. But as Ava, Carol, and Derik dig into the case, it's clear there's more to this story than meets the eye.

Their investigation leads them to the eerie halls of the Livingston Players Community Theater, the former site of Scarlett's home. What starts as a search for clues quickly turns deadly when Ava is attacked, and strange warnings are sent to stop them in their tracks. Why would someone go to such lengths to protect a case that's been cold for 100 years? And what secrets are buried deep within this forgotten mystery?

As the clock ticks, the trio races to uncover the truth behind Scarlett's death-but the closer they get, the more dangerous their mission becomes. Is the past about to reveal something that no one is ready to face?
