Publisher's summary

Trust no one. Especially your neighbors.

Rachel Drake is on the run from the man who killed her husband. She never leaves her safe haven in an anonymous doorman building, until one night a phone call sends her running. On her way to the garage, she is murdered in the elevator. But her story doesn’t end there.

She finds herself in the afterlife, tethered to her death spot, her reach tied to the adjacent apartments. As she rides the elevator up and down, the lives of the residents intertwine. Every one of them has a dark secret. An aging trophy wife whose husband strays. A surgeon guarding a locked room. A TV medium who may be a fraud. An ordinary man with a mysterious hobby.

Compelled to spend eternity observing her neighbors, she realizes that any one of them could be her killer.

Great story, excellent narration

This kept my interest from the beginning. The narration was great, too. If you want a decent ghost story, this fits the bill

If You Enjoy a Good Mystery, This is for You!

I picked this up because it sounded intriguing. It's the first book by this author so I didn't know what to expect.

A woman is killed in an elevator and her spirit is tied to her death spot, so she has to ride up and down the elevator observing her neighbors living their lives. She can peek into a couple of adjacent apartments when the elevator isn't moving but even that is pretty limited.

The book is full of little side stories as you get little glimpses of what goes on with people when no one is watching.
The big mystery of who killed Kay, is the big question to be answered.

The ending wasn't predictable and there's a lot of topics that could be discussed if anyone was looking for a book club recommendation.

Also the narrator did a fantastic job! I will be looking for more books from this author as well as this narrator.
