Notes:
It all begins on a Monday, when four people board an elevator in a Manhattan office tower. Each presses a button for their floor, but the elevator proceeds, non-stop, to the top. Once there, it stops for a few seconds, and then plummets. Right to the bottom of the shaft. It appears to be a horrific, random tragedy. But then, on Tuesday, it happens again, in a different Manhattan skyscraper. And when Wednesday brings yet another high-rise catastrophe, one of the most vertical cities in the world and the nations capital of media, finance, and entertainment is plunged into chaos. Clearly, this is anything but random. This is a cold, calculated bid to terrorize the city. And its working. Fearing for their lives, thousands of men and women working in offices across the city refuse leave their homes. Commerce has slowed to a trickle.

Reviews
As a former Lift(elevator) safety inspector, lots of holes in the plot, but still enjoyed it.
