The Escape Room

In Megan Goldin's The Escape Room, this chilling thriller will leave you hooked and at the edge of the seat. It all started when Sara Hall landed a job with Stanhope and Sons, an investment banking firm, a dream job straight out from college in NYC. As the new girl, people treated her differently until she fast-learned the ropes in no time. Between her rise on the ladder of success, she had to deal with her parents' health issues and a new potential love interest. Things were up and up for her. For Vincent, Sylvie, Jules and Sam, they were stuck in an elevator for an escape-room team building for the firm.  Pretty soon, they're trapped and feeling the heat, when new clues shook things up when secrets and lies come out into the open and turn each other. For the past five years, everything was fine for Sara, when one of their co-workers Lucy died from a "suicide" and later her mother died in a "hit-and-run." It was up to Sara to put the pieces together and discovered what Lucy left behind for her to find in hidden clues. When she told this to her boss, Vincent, he denied everything. Things took a drastic turn for her when her co-workers didn't give her the time of day and harsh deadlines, and ruining things for her. And later, it landed her being fired, losing everything including her mother's death. But revenge is better served cold when Sara concocted the perfect plan behind the schemes to leave them in the cold, looking for answers, until she would have the better revenge after all in a shocking ending.

This thriller is the perfect one that emulates revenge in the best way. I did care for Sara and how she sought revenge for herself and for Lucy Marshall, a fellow coworker, and even for Lucy's mother too. I loved how she dealt with such hardships and a ton of drama, even when she "faked" her own death to get even in the best possible way. I thought Vincent and company had gotten what they had deserved in the end. I loved the various locations set in NYC and Chicago and even in the Caribbean in the end and the lovely settings for every scene. This would have you rooting for Sara all the way with non-stop drama, action, suspense, and plenty of intrigue to keep you fascinated to the end.

Will you be there to see how it unfolds in the Escape Room today?
