An 2118. New York est désormais une tour de mille étages où les plus aisés vivent à son sommet. Les plus pauvres se retrouvent dans les petits appartements mal aérés des premiers étages. Plus on monte dans la tour, plus les appartements sont grands, les rues plus larges. Jusqu'au millième étage, où il n'y a plus qu'un appartement: celui d'Avery et Atlas Fuller. Celui dont on parle dès le prologue, puisque c'est de cet étage qu'une jeune fille tombe mystérieusement. L'histoire est racontée du point de vue de cinq jeunes gens: la parfaite Avery, Leda, toxicomane et meilleure amie d'Avery, Eris, une jeune fille riche qui va être bouleversée par un secret de famille, Watt, un garçon ayant créé un programme informatique illégal pour espionner les gens; et Rylin, une fille de la basse Tour travaillant pour Cord, de la haute Tour.
