About this listen

2014 Winner - Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award - Grand Prize and Mystery & Thriller Fiction Winner

It’s 1998, and for years the old First Bank of Cleveland has sat abandoned, perfectly preserved, its secrets only speculated on by the outside world.

Twenty years before, amid strange staff disappearances and allegations of fraud, panicked investors sold Cleveland’s largest bank in the middle of the night, locking out customers and employees, and thwarting a looming federal investigation. In the confusion that followed, the keys to the vault’s safe-deposit boxes were lost.

In the years since, Cleveland’s wealthy businessmen kept the truth buried in the abandoned high-rise. The ransacked offices and forgotten safe-deposit boxes remain locked in time, until young engineer Iris Latch stumbles upon them during a renovation survey. What begins as a welcome break from her cubicle becomes an obsession as Iris unravels the bank’s sordid past. With each haunting revelation, Iris follows the looming shadow of the past deeper into the vault - and soon realizes that the key to the mystery comes at an astonishing price.

Excellent book

This book is gripping and thrilling and definitely worth listening to. It kept me guessing right to the end and has left me with even more questions. Excellently written and performed. I loved it.

Twists and turns right to the end

Looked at this book a few times before reading/listening it and on boy am I glad I did. The plot is exciting and has more twists and turns than spaghetti junction. I loved how the two eras involved really came together and I loved the line "girls like us are invisible" , many of us are and therefore under estimated.
I will not give any of the plot away as this is a review and not a synopsis but I am so glad I have found this author and will continue to appreciate their well written tales
