No Love in an Elevator

Elevator Pitch by Linwood Barclay; 2019; $26.99; 453 pages; William  Morrow, New York, NY; 978-0-06-267828-7;checked out from Multnomah County Library, Woodstock; 11/1/19-11/5/19

Some one has taken control of elevators in some of the buildings in New York City.  The right wing miltias, Islamic jihadist and more are all suspects.  The mayor is reluctant to close all the elevators in the city, because of the economic cost to the city, country and globe, because NYC is such a vertical city.  I was getting disappointed in the book because I thought the author had made it too easy to figure out who was responsible, but he put in a very effective twist and I had ignored some foreshadowing.  I will read more by the author.  

10/10
