Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • "A breathless read" (USA Today) featuring "some of the most ingenious military-techno twists this side of Tom Clancy" (San Francisco Chronicle).
David Elliot is about to have a very bad day at the office.
Each morning in his forty-fifth floor executive suite, David savors the quiet moments before the workday begins. Until today, when his boss walks in and aims a gun at him, murder glinting in his eye.
For the rest of the day, David will be trapped in a midtown tower with a team of ruthless and professional mercenaries. Everyone he meets-and knows-will try to kill him. They expect him to be dead by lunchtime.
But they're wrong.
This is the "killer" workday redefined, a high-stakes and whiplash-paced drama that plays out with an electrifying intensity. You'll never see the office the same way again.
