The higher you climb, the further you have to fall. Sloane and Vance appear to have it all-a flawless Manhattan life, a glass-walled luxury duplex, and a beautiful baby daughter. From the outside, their world is pristine. Untouchable. Until Sloane starts hearing scratching in the vents. Forty stories above the ground, something is moving through the walls of their home. When her daughter's silver pacifier vanishes from a locked nursery-only to reappear inside a rusted air duct-Sloane's reality begins to fracture. Vance calls it stress. The neighbors call it a breakdown. But beneath the marble floors and designer silence, something far more disturbing is watching. Hidden deep within the building is a secret society that has existed unnoticed for decades. They don't just observe the families above them. They choose them. As Sloane fights to protect her child, she is forced to confront a terrifying truth: sometimes the person keeping you safe is the same one quietly building your cage.
