A man in a new city. A murderer on the loose. This is no time for embroidery.
Skeeter Dursky is the latest hire at the Lake Michigan Tower—a seventeen-story retirement community. It's only his third day, and he's determined to make a good impression. Unfortunately, his supervisor doesn't believe he's skilled enough to handle the simplest tasks.
When a figure from Skeeter's past arrives, his world turns upside-down. For Skeeter has a secret to protect—it's one the government has gone to a lot of expense to hide.
After a famous resident is murdered, members of Chicago's finest swarm the tower and lock it down. Word of the crime brings the media and a ragtag group of mourning fans.
With nosy cops at every exit and the press gathered outside the lobby, Skeeter Dursky has nowhere to run. If he ever hopes to see freedom again, he must take matters into his own hands.
Can Skeeter find the murderer and slip away before anyone realizes his true identity?
