About this listen

New York Times best seller

“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 45th 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.

weird musical interludes, otherwise great

This is an exciting read - very Die Hard. I've read the hardcopy version several times and was happy to find an audiobook version. The narration is fine, not outstanding but nothing wrong with it either. The only thing I really didn't like is the music - every once in a while you get a cheesy musical interlude or addition that doesn't seem thematically relevant, and is also just generally odd - I swear some of it sounds like disco tunes played on a church organ. But the music doesn't last for long, thank goodness, and soon you can get back to enjoying the story. Would recommend.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
