Insecure
college senior Orion loves music, books, and his best friend Niko. When
the two of them find a secret basement in their rambling old off-campus
house, at first Orion’s thrilled. It’s another secret to share, an
adventure to maybe, at last, bring them closer together.
But
something's wrong: the basement doesn't end. Blandly decorated halls
stretch on for miles past peeling wallpaper, empty bedrooms, and
countless stairwells always leading down. Soon they realize Downstairs
is a snarled tangle of possibilities. Something down there multiplies
everything: architecture, emotions, even people.
Together they
must navigate an increasingly dangerous labyrinth filled with two-faced
doppelgangers, treacherous architecture, and long-buried secrets. Most
dangerous of all is Orion's consuming obsession: somewhere down there,
is there a Niko who loves him back?
