An office elevator with no way down should be warning enough for Arlo, but he needs this job to pay his impending school loans and backed up rent. At a tech giant like Midas, Arlo is grateful for his new position, but when it becomes clear no one ever leaves, ever, a pit of horror in his stomach grows. And after his desk mate makes a mistake which costs him a pound of flesh, (literally), it hits Arlo that no paycheck is worth his life. But escape won't be simple. His first attempt is stopped by the cyborg enforcer, known ominously as Strike, the eye of Midas who is more machine than man. But Arlo isn't one to give us easily and will navigate the endless floors of the unending Midas skyscraper, seeking a way out.
