In an old apartment building, a group of people go about their night like any other. However, tonight is different, tonight all their lives intertwine. A night, when against all the odds, a series of events unfolds, culminating in a bloodbath. It's a story of love, madness, sexual perversity, stalking, murder, greed, abuse, voyaging, and betrayal. Also, other, outsider's blood, stains the floors and walls; the Ukrainian mob, the French special forces, and the local police - it's a complete massacre. Follow the complicated life-and-death dance. Read as they die one by one, causing a chain reaction that results in the building burning to the ground. One building. Nine apartments. Nine intertwined stories. Twenty-nine dead, three missing, and only one survivor. 1 The Insomniac
