A perfect frame.Arrested for a murder she didn't commit, Maeve is forced into the custody of Julian Thorne, Liam's former best friend and SomniCorp's arrogant lead architect.

He has engineered the perfect frame job, committing murders while wearing Liam's consciousness as a mask.Now, a ghost is walking the streets of Seattle, and he is coming to drag Maeve back into the labyrinth. To survive, Maeve must dive into the pitch-black heart of the SomniCorp grid and find the flaw in Julian's creation before the residual echo deletes her forever.
