Welcome to Manhattan, 2118.

A hundred years in the future, New York is a city of innovation and dreams. But people never change: everyone here wants something…and everyone has something to lose.

Leda Cole’s flawless exterior belies a secret addiction—to a drug she never should have tried and a boy she never should have touched.

Rylin Myers’s job on one of the highest floors sweeps her into a world—and a romance—she never imagined…but will her new life cost Rylin her old one?

Watt Bakradi is a tech genius with a secret: he knows everything about everyone. But when he’s hired to spy by an upper-floor girl, he finds himself caught up in a complicated web of lies.

And living above everyone else on the thousandth floor is Avery Fuller, the girl genetically designed to be perfect. The girl who seems to have it all—yet is tormented by the one thing she can never have.

Perfect for fans of One of Us Is Lying and Big Little Lies, debut author Katharine McGee has created a breathtakingly original series filled with high-tech luxury and futuristic glamour, where the impossible feels just within reach. But in this world, the higher you go, the farther there is to fall….

A High-Stakes Whodunit: The series opens with a girl falling from the thousandth floor. Was she pushed, did she jump, or was it an accident? The answer lies in the two months leading up to the tragedy.
Multiple POVs: Told from the perspectives of five teens navigating the glittering, dangerous world of the tower—from the genetically perfect girl on top to the tech genius from the lower levels hired to spy on her.
Complex Social Hierarchy: In a futuristic Manhattan where society is stacked vertically, every floor represents a different social class. For a girl from the bottom like Rylin, a trip to the top could mean a new life… or losing everything.
High-Tech Glamour and Intrigue: Beneath the futuristic glamour and luxury, everyone has a secret. From a hidden addiction that threatens Leda to a family betrayal that shatters Eris’s world, no one is safe from the fallout.
