Come in out of the storm, and join Dr. Conrad Bering’s psychiatric patients as they gather for an unconventional therapy session on the top floor of an apartment building. A lusty secretary, a stoic fixer, an insatiable collector, a self-absorbed standard setter, a disgruntled ex-cop, a depressed college dean, and a domineering property manager soon discover that the Doctor is permanently unavailable, and it’s up to them to uncover truths that want to stay hidden.
As the misfit group of crime solvers attempt to get to the bottom of a chilling mystery, it becomes clear that there’s plenty of blame to go around, and trust is a luxury no one in the building can afford. Even Time becomes an enemy as one among them demonstrates how nearly effortless it can be getting away with murder.
