"The next heart-pounding thriller from New York Times bestselling author Riley Sager follows a young woman whose new job apartment sitting in one of New York's oldest and most glamorous buildings may cost more than it pays. No visitors. No nights spent away from the apartment. No disturbing the other residents, all of whom are rich or famous or both. These are the only rules for Jules Larsen's new job as an apartment sitter at the Bartholomew, one of Manhattan's most high-profile and mysterious buildings. Recently heartbroken and just plain broke, Jules is taken in by the splendor of her surroundings and accepts the terms, ready to leave her past life behind. As she gets to know the residents and staff of the Bartholomew, Jules finds herself drawn to fellow apartment sitter Ingrid, who comfortingly reminds her of the sister she lost eight years ago. When Ingrid confides that the Bartholomew is not what it seems and the dark history hidden beneath its gleaming facade is starting to frighten her, Jules brushes it off as a harmless ghost story. until the next day, when Ingrid disappears. Searching for the truth about Ingrid's disappearance, Jules digs deeper into the Bartholomew's sordid past and into the secrets kept within its walls. What she discovers pits Jules against the clock as she races to unmask a killer, expose the building's hidden past, and escape the Bartholomew before her temporary status becomes permanent"-- Provided by publisher.

Dumb protagonist still the first to solve century old mystery? submitted by mintaroni on July 3, 2022, 9:36am Jules at times feels real, other times very 2d cardboard protagonist who is really dumb and is just hitting plot points that feel like they have neon signs pointing to them. It's not a bad book and I finished it in one day so it wasn't boring but God Jules is not a good character. The ending made up for a lot but even that is a bit dumb. If you're a big thriller fan who likes social commentary on poor vs. rich in America, the suspense is good and commentary ok but be prepared to want to scream at Jules.
