Manchester, the present. Michael divides his time between the job center and the pub. A chance meeting with Lee, an introduction to her Uncle Ian and a heavy night on the lash lead to a job working the door at a Northern Quarter massage parlor. After witnessing the violent death of one of the punters, Michael experiences blood-drenched flashbacks and feels himself being sucked into a twilight world that he doesn't understand but that is irresistibly attractive. When he eventually finds out what goes on in the room below Cloud 9, Michaels' life will never be the same again. 　　译文(2): 曼彻斯特，现在。迈克尔把时间分配在就业中心和酒吧之间。一次与李的偶然相遇，一次对她叔叔伊恩的介绍，以及一个严重的鞭打之夜，使她得到了一份在北区一家按摩院做门卫的工作。在目睹了其中一名赌客的惨死后，迈克尔经历了血淋淋的倒叙，感觉自己被吸进了一个他不理解但却无法抗拒的黄昏世界。当他最终发现云9下面的房间里发生了什么，迈克尔斯的生活将再也不会一样了。
