A hundred years in the future, New York is a city of innovation and dreams. But people never change: everyone here wants something…and everyone has something to lose.

**Leda Cole**’s flawless exterior belies a secret addiction—to a drug she never should have tried, and a boy she never should have touched.

**Eris Dodd-Radson**’s beautiful, carefree life falls to pieces when a heartbreaking betrayal tears her family apart.

**Rylin Myers**’s job on one of the highest floors sweeps her into a world—and a romance—she never imagined…but will her new life cost Rylin her old one?

And living above everyone else on the thousandth floor is **Avery Fuller**, the girl genetically designed to be perfect. The girl who seems to have it all—yet is tormented by the one thing she can never have.

Amid breathtaking advancement and high-tech luxury, five teenagers struggle to find their place at the top of the world. But when you’re this high up, there’s nowhere to go but down…
