Masaharu Fukuyama reprend le rôle qu'il avait joué dans "Suspect X" en 2008, en interprétant le physicien-détective Manabu Yukawa. Le scientifique et enquêteur arrive dans une ville côtière pour participer à une conférence. Mais lorsqu'un homme est retrouvé mort à l'extérieur de l'auberge où il loge, Yukawa commence à démêler les liens qui unissent la victime à la fille activiste des aubergistes et à un garçon précoce qui apparaît pour la première fois dans un train et qui ne cesse de réapparaître. Il s'agit d'un mystère à la Sherlock Holmes avec une touche environnementale, qui devrait plaire aux amateurs de romans policiers classiques.

A man named Alderson awakens in a cube-shaped room with a hatch in each wall, the ceiling and the floor, each of which leads to other cube-shaped rooms, identical except for their color. He enters an orange room and, without warning, is killed by a trap. In another such room, five people – Quentin, Worth, Holloway, Rennes, and Leaven – meet. None of them knows where they are or how they got there. Quentin informs the others that some rooms contain traps, which he learned by nearly being killed by one. Rennes assumes each trap is triggered by a motion detector and tests each room by throwing one of his boots in first. Leaven notices numbers inscribed in the passageways between rooms. Quentin, a policeman, recognizes Rennes as "the Wren", an escape artist renowned for getting out of jails. After declaring one room trap-free, Rennes enters and is killed when he is sprayed with acid. The others realize that there are different kinds of detectors, and Quentin deduces that this trap was triggered by heat.

Max Cohen is the story's protagonist and unreliable narrator. Unemployed, and living in a dreary Chinatown apartment in New York City, Max is a number theorist who believes that everything in nature can be understood through numbers. He is capable of doing simple arithmetic calculations involving large numbers in his head, a skill that impresses Jenna, a small Chinese-American girl with a calculator who lives in his apartment building. Max also suffers from cluster headaches, as well as extreme paranoia, hallucinations, and social anxiety disorder. Other than Devi, a young woman living next door who sometimes speaks to him, Max's only social interaction is with Sol Robeson, his old mathematics mentor who is now an invalid.
