Sara is getting desperate for a job when a dream career comes along. Working in finance, making more than she ever imaged. What could go wrong? 

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.
