An extremely gripping read, nice start to November! As a self-professed thrill-seeker reader I can't stand books that don't have good pacing, slow burn is really not my style. This book keeps you on edge at all times.
Nevertheless, the ending felt a bit rushed. I wished there was more to the escape room tho I would love to have more puzzles to solve. I understand that the escape room is not the main focus of this book, but... don't name it like that if its not ;-; At times the plot seems too convenient, I would prefer everything to happen more organically.
I love how I started out rating this book 4.25 our of 5 stars, but when I wrote my review I gradually decrease it to just 3.5 stars. I still made it to the end and *relatively* not that disappointed, but don't think this is a future reread.
9 March 24: second re-read, the resemblance between the first quarter of this book and my new corporate job is very uncanny…

Sara enters the company, but never makes it to the inner sanctum. The heads of the company are ruthless and care about making the deals at any cost.
The other perspective is the leaders of the company in an escape room. They’re stuck in an elevator and forced to escape to survive. It starts as a hardcore escape room, but quickly devolves as secrets are spilled.
The rotating perspectives keep things fast-moving. There is never a really dull part. Fun, quick read.

Review:
This was my first time reading a book by Megan so i wasnt sure what to expect but im so glad this was a successful New to Me Author Read.
The Characters Diversity is what i loved most cause not alot of Thriller's feature 8 different Characteristics that arent the same which i think made this book even better.
The Setting was very interesting since ive never read a book featuring Wall Street Bankers and Investors before which i think was a good dynamic for a Thriller. I especially loved all the Twists and Turns as well as the Shocking ending cause i did not expect said Character to be the killer, i thought for sure it was Sylvie.
Overall a Phenomenal Thriller even tho i do wish this was part of a series cause i'd love to see how some of the characters lives are now!!
