Elevator Pitch by Linwood Barclay.
William Morrow, an imprint of HarperCollins, 2019. Adult fiction suspense, thriller.
Can you imagine what would happen if all the elevators in all the buildings in New York City had to be shut down? For Barbara, a journalist, following the mayor's office is just part of her job. For Delgado and Bourque, police partners who investigate cases together, time is of the essence. When several seeming accidents (or is it terrorism?) involve the vertical city's elevators, everyone is part of it all. Mayor Headley and his son, Glover; Barbara's estranged daughter, Arla; a Russian scientist, a political espionage group called the Flyovers, and more intriguing people become part of this mystery and race to find out what is really going on. Every chapter seems to pull readers forward and you may not want to stop reading! PS It is not the kind of scary that will make you afraid to ride on an elevator!
