Summary:

The Odenburgh, an old apartment building made of brick and blunt opinions, is the last of its kind in a swiftly changing neighborhood. After years of putting up with people and their many problems, the Odenburgh knows there’s no point in getting attached. They all just leave eventually. A truth that comes all too soon when the building is sold and slated for demolition, giving tenants a month to move out.No one is more troubled by the news than eleven-year-old Prue, who refuses to leave her family’s apartment. Not when it was the last place she lived with her sister Lina, before she lost Lina forever. When Prue launches a plan to save their home, the Odenburgh joins in -- flickering lights, jamming elevators, triggering fire alarms -- all to try and bring a building full of bickering residents together. In the process, Prue meets Lewis, an eccentric boy who lives across the street -- and the only one who can help her discover the missing elements of her sister’s story. -- Provided by publisher.
