All of Basit Deniau’s houses are haunted. And the late architect’s most iconic creation, Rose House, is no exception. A house imbedded with artificial intelligence is a common thing; but a house that is an artificial intelligence, with consciousness infused in every load-bearing beam ans fine marble tile? That is something new altogether.
Denieu’s been dead a year, and the house is locked up tight. One evening detective Maritza Smith receives an alarming call from Rose House: there is a dead body inside. It is not Basit Deniau, and it’s not Dr Selene Gisil - his former protégé, and the sole person permitted, once a year, to access Rose House. It’s someone else. But Rose House refuses to communicate any further.
