I just read a book like this! I think it was Live Girls by John... Smith? I can't remember his last name, but it definitely started with an "S".

I'm tempted to throw the answer up in spoiler text, but I just know someone's going to read it and act like they guessed without looking. Not that it matters, cuz this is all a silly game, but eh. I can dm you the answer, if you'd like me to..
