30-something Nate hates his job. He has no
money in the bank. No girlfriend. No plans for the future. So, he has other
things on his mind when he ends up moving into an old brownstone apartment
building in LA, with suspiciously cheap rent. The neighbors are quite the
group: the artist who likes to sun herself on the roof deck in the nude; the
hacker who arranges free wi-fi for the building; the mysterious ‘text book
publisher’ who displays unusual skills, and more.
The building holds secrets; more than one door
is locked with a series of deadbolts and/or padlocks. There’s a perfect
apartment which no one rents because people keep dying there. The hacker’s room
is always 69° F, no matter the time of year or anything she tries to do to alter it.
There are no power lines coming to the building, yet it has zero power
problems. Nate and the others gradually become obsessed with finding out what’s
going on, and that obsession may kill them–and take the rest of the world with
them.
