Book summary from back cover: Pikadon's stairways lead nowhere. Its doors open to reveal solid, impenetrable walls. Its hallways form an unsolvable, twisting maze. Against its colossal structure people seem as insubstantial as ghosts. Pikadon is full of ghosts. Once the sun goes down, the labyrinthine corridors are haunted by the shambling, moaning dead. Blind and deaf, crippled, skin shredded by atomic blasts, the imprisoned dead stalk the imprisoned living.
Overall, I enjoyed this book. I wasn't riveted, and often found myself putting it down to do something else. But I just as easily picked the book up again to continue the story. If you read a lot of horror, or haunted house stories, you may find this book predictable, though I found the Japanese atomic bomb victim angle to be unique. And I am still not sure if Chloe was actually alive or a ghost. I would recommend this book.
