Summary
A SUNDAY TIMES BEST PAPERBACK OF 2020!
'You should read ELEVATOR PITCH by Linwood Barclay as soon as possible. It's one hell of a suspense novel' STEPHEN KING
‘Moves as fast as a falling elevator and hits with just as much force. Linwood Barclay is a stone cold pro. ELEVATOR PITCH is a shameless good time’ JOE HILL
WHEN THE DOORS CLOSE, HE’S GOT YOU…
It begins on a Monday, when four people board an elevator in Manhattan. Each presses the button for their floor, but the elevator climbs, non-stop, to the top where it pauses for a few seconds, before dropping.
Right to the bottom of the shaft.
It appears to be a horrific, random tragedy. But then, on Tuesday, it happens again. And when Wednesday brings yet another catastrophe, New York, one of the most vertical cities in the world is plunged into chaos.
Clearly, this is anything but random. This is a cold, calculated bid to terrorize the city. And it’s working. But what do these deadly acts of sabotage have to do with the fingerless body found on the High Line?
It will be a race against time for detectives Jerry Borque and Lois Delgado to find the answers before a deadly Friday night showdown.
Number one bestseller Linwood Barclay returns with a heart-stopping thriller which will do for elevators what Psycho did for showers and Jaws did for the beach…

Disappointing.
Having read everyone of Linwood Barclays books I was excited to read this latest release, I was not impressed. Not as riveting as I expected and no unexpected twist.

utterly thrilling!
Jonathan McClain is an extraordinarily talented narrator, bringing to life, so effortlessly, this exciting unravelling of intertwining story lines by Linwood Barclay. I just couldn't stop listening to it! utterly brilliant!

long winded
I had been looking forward to the release of Linwood Barclays latest.... the idea behind the story is good, but it's so slow.
too many characters, none of which are particularly likable, and a whole lot of book about not much....
I will be returning it...
