it was a good, pretty quick read and it captured my attention pretty much from the beginning. I really like the switching povs a lot. the title and summary are deceiving though. it's made out to be an escaperoom type of story but it's more about the world of investment banking and the lives of a few of those people. the end suprised me the most and overall I liked the book.

➸ Trigger warnings for ableism, sexism, classism, sexual assault (off-page, discussed), graphic sexual harassment, infidelity, alcoholism, faked suicide, alcohol & drug abuse, drugging, blood depiction, physical injuries including concussion and stroke, hospitalisation of a parent, grief depiction, death of a father (off-page), death of a friend, murder by electrocution, police violence, gun violence, physical assault, kidnapping & captivity, car accident, and discussions of financial difficulties. Context: A secondary character is drugged and sexually assaulted by multiple male coworkers while at work. The assault is covered up and not believed when reported. The character is later murdered; she is drugged and placed into her bathtub with her iPad plugged into a dodgy charger. She is presumed to have died from suicide by electrocution. The protagonist grieves her death. The protagonist's father has a chronic heart condition which he dies from later in the novel (off-page). Multiple characters are kidnapped and confined to an elevator for their entire timeline. They physically assaulted one another, resulting in bloody injuries. In the end, two of them murder each other (gunshot, stabbed with mirror shards) and another is shot by the police.literatebird's review
