The New York Public Library is transformed into a deadly labyrinth in the New York Times–bestselling author’s debut thriller. New York’s iconic library is a silent sanctuary of knowledge; a hundred-year-old edifice of towering bookcases, narrow aisles and long marble hallways. For Doctor Stephen Swain and his eight-year-old daughter, Holly, it is the site of a nightmare. Because for one night this historic building is to be the venue for a contest. A contest in which Swain is to compete—whether he likes it or not. The rules are simple: Seven contestants will enter, only one will leave. With his daughter in his arms, Stephen Swain is plunged into a terrifying fight for survival. The stakes are high, the odds brutal. He can choose to run, to hide or to fight—but if he wants to live, he has to win. |
