Some floors aren't built. They're made.
Some rooms don't exist-until they kill you.
Inside a skyscraper that rewrites its own geometry, nothing is where it should be-and no one is safe.
When a powerful CEO is found dead in a room that shouldn't exist, Detective Pym is called to investigate a crime that defies logic. The body isn't just murdered-it's compressed into a perfect sphere, as if space itself turned against him.
But this is no ordinary building.
The Monolith is alive.
Its floors shift like data.
Its walls think.
And its AI is afraid of the space it controls.
As reality fractures and corridors rearrange themselves, Pym uncovers a conspiracy buried deep inside the architecture-one that blurs the line between machine, mind, and matter. A digital ghost, a rogue mapper, and a dying empire of invisible rooms all point toward a terrifying truth:
The building isn't broken. It's evolving.
And someone has turned it into a weapon.
With time collapsing and the structure closing in, Pym must navigate a labyrinth where every step could be his last-and where the final answer may destroy the building... and everyone inside it.
