The next heart-pounding thriller from New York
Times bestselling author Riley Sager follows a young
woman whose new job apartment sitting in one of New York’s
oldest and most glamorous buildings may cost more than it
pays.
No visitors. No nights spent away from the apartment. No
disturbing the other residents, all of whom are rich or
famous or both. These are the only rules for Jules
Larsen’s new job as an apartment sitter at the
Bartholomew, one of Manhattan's most high-profile and
mysterious buildings. Recently heartbroken and just plain
broke, Jules is taken in by the splendor of her
surroundings and accepts the terms, ready to leave her
past life behind.
As she gets to know the residents and staff of the
Bartholomew, Jules finds herself drawn to fellow apartment
sitter Ingrid, who comfortingly reminds her of the sister
she lost eight years ago. When Ingrid confides that the
Bartholomew is not what it seems and the dark history
hidden beneath its gleaming facade is starting to frighten
her, Jules brushes it off as a harmless ghost story . . .
until the next day, when Ingrid disappears.
Searching for the truth about Ingrid’s disappearance,
Jules digs deeper into the Bartholomew's sordid past and
into the secrets kept within its walls. What she discovers
pits Jules against the clock as she races to unmask a
killer, expose the building’s hidden past, and escape the
Bartholomew before her temporary status becomes permanent
