It’s a very fast read for sure, you will be slightly intrigued. The prose is very matter fact. I preferred the dialogue between characters because the narrator felt a little repetitive and monotonous. I did not like it but I enjoyed reading it (tis confusion)

it was a good, pretty quick read and it captured my attention pretty much from the beginning. I really like the switching povs a lot. the title and summary are deceiving though. it's made out to be an escaperoom type of story but it's more about the world of investment banking and the lives of a few of those people. the end suprised me the most and overall I liked the book.

The protagonist grieves her death. The protagonist's father has a chronic heart condition which he dies from later in the novel (off-page).
