A reclusive, blind photojournalist lives quietly in a New York penthouse, until a smooth but sadistic criminal looking for a hidden fortune enters her life.

It's New Year's Eve in New York City and everyone's getting ready to party. Watching, waiting, a man called Hollander has a different kind of party in mind. Alone in her high-rise apartment, Sara has no idea that her boyfriend was a thief. But what he stole - and from whom - is about to put her life on the line. Trapped in the penthouse with Hollander and his sadistic partner, these two will kill, maim, tear the place apart to find a fortune in diamonds. While the party rages outside, inside Sara fights desperately for her life. It's kill or be killed in a pulse-pounding , non-stop fight to the finish - and it all takes place in Penthouse North.—Anonymous

New York City, New Year's Eve. Sara Frost, a former photographer who is now permanently blind from an explosion three years ago when she was covering the war in Afghanistan, is preparing for a small gathering in her and her boyfriend Ryan's upscale penthouse apartment in Brooklyn this evening to ring in the new year with her pregnant sister Blake and Blake's husband Danny. When Sara returns home after a trip to the liquor store, she discovers that someone has invaded the apartment, the man who begins to terrorize her. She will learn that he choosing her is not by chance as he is looking for something and will kill to get it back, kill her especially if he believes she knows where it is. What happens in this matter will be affected by triggers for her back to the explosion in Afghanistan and the imminent New Year's Eve celebrations.—Huggo
