Frieda Grier always thought Nicholas Kingston was just a quiet guy who worked on her floor. He was polite, kept to himself, and seemed entirely harmless.
But tonight, a brutal storm has knocked out the city's power grid, plunging their corporate office into pitch-black isolation. The elevators are dead. The phones have no signal. And Frieda is trapped inside with him.
When Nicholas steps out of the shadows, his casual workplace demeanor quickly sours into something suffocating. He doesn't just want to talk; he has prepared a dinner for her in the office kitchen-a meal she never asked for, built entirely out of her stalked preferences. He knows intimate details about her life she has only ever posted to her private social media profiles-things she has never shared with him.
Nicholas hasn't just been a background presence on the floor. He has been archiving her digital ghost, building a volatile fantasy out of her data. And now that they are isolated, he expects her to play her part.
As the quiet pressure of his delusion turns into a frantic physical hunt through the unfinished concrete columns of the building, Frieda realizes her biggest mistake wasn't staying late. It was assuming he was safe.
In this claustrophobic, slow-burn psychological thriller, one woman must fight to survive a workplace nightmare where the predator didn't have to break in-because he was already standing right behind her.
