Avatar is an Angel novel. Written by John Passarella, it was originally published on February 27, 2001 by Pocket Books.

Synopsis

'NET STAKER

When Angel arrived in Los Angeles, he assumed he'd find enough evil to keep himself busy for, well... eternity. Up until now, he's had his hands full in real time. So when Cordelia suggests starting up a Web site for their detective agency, he's hesitant. As Doyle puts it, "People in trouble want to interface with a face."

Soon, though, the police discover a trail of desiccated corpses stretching across the city. The only thing that bind these victims (other than the cause of death) is their pastime pursuit: online chatting. One by one, they are being hunted by a techno-savvy demon. And when the monster has claimed his final victim, he will have completed a ritual that extends the arm of his evil far beyond the reach of even the Internet...

Continuity

The events of this story take place during Angel season 1, between novels Hollywood Noir and Bruja.
Cordy mentioned that she only became part of the Scooby Gang because of her relationship with Xander ("What's My Line, Part One").

Meanwhile the police discover a trail of corpses across the city. The only connection between these victims (apart from the cause of death) is their hobby of online chatting. It seems a techno-savvy demon must be on the prowl, hoping to complete a ritual going even beyond a world-wide web.
