    Summary: 
    "The interlocking stories of six characters whose only connection is their units at a storage facility, where a tragic accident will either tear them apart or help them salvage their own precarious lives"--
    When a harrowing accident-- or is it an accident?-- occurs in the Metropolis Storage Warehouse, six people will be forced to consider their life circumstances. Serge is mentally unstable but a brilliant street photographer, and lives in his rental unit. Zach, the storage facility owner and an ex-drug dealer, discovers clues in Serge's photographs. Marta is an undocumented immigrant hiding from ICE in her unit. Liddy, an abused wife and mother, may be responsible for the accident... unless she intended it. Jason has left his corporate law firm and now practices out of his unit. Rose, the office manager, takes kickbacks to let people live in the facility. Each tries to salvage their own life-- and discover the truth behind the accident. -- adapted from jacket
