Its peculiar structure has broken the rules of modern architecture and has made it one of the most recognizable skyscrapers on the Manhattan skyline.

Since he accepted the commission six years ago, gravity has not been the only obstacle he has had to overcome to create this enormous tower of steel, concrete, and glass.

A Structural Engineering student has detected what seems to be a calculation error, and everything suggests that the building could collapse causing an unimaginable catastrophe. LeMessurier doesn't want to admit his mistake, but the warning of an imminent great storm is like a countdown threatening the entire city.

With an impeccable plot and accelerating pace, Pedro Torrijos offers a thriller full of tension that keeps readers on their toes until the last page.
