| Synopsis |
| Cleveland Heep has been
quietly trying to disappear among the burned-out light bulbs and broken
appliances of the Cove apartment complex. But on the night that irrevocably
changes his life, Cleveland finds someone else hiding in the mundane
routine of this modest building--a mysterious young woman named Story,
who has been living in the passageways beneath the building's swimming
pool. Cleveland discovers that Story is actually a Narf--a nymph-like
character from an epic bedtime story who is being stalked by vicious
creatures determined to prevent her from making the treacherous journey
from our world back to hers. Story's unique powers of perception reveal
the fates of Cleveland's fellow tenants, whose destinies are tied
directly to her own, and they must work together to decipher a series
of codes that will unlock the pathway to her freedom. But the window
of opportunity for Story to return home is closing rapidly, and the
tenants are putting their own lives at great risk to help her. Cleveland
will have to face the demons that have followed him to the Cove--and
the other tenants must seize the special powers that Story has brought
out in them--if they hope to succeed in their daring and dangerous
quest to save her world--and ours. |
