Synopsis:
Four strangers—Martin, Maureen, Jess, and JJ—each arrive at the top of a London high-rise on New Year’s Eve with the same intention: to end their lives. Instead of dying alone, they interrupt one another, and their unexpected meeting derails their plans.
Told in alternating first-person voices, the novel follows the four as they come down from the roof and form an uneasy, darkly funny alliance. As they try to navigate the weeks and months that follow, they confront fame, family, depression, guilt, and the messy practicalities of staying alive—at least for now.
