From the award-winning author of Spare Room, a new job saves a young woman from money troubles, but her office holds a deadly secret.
One hundred years ago, twenty-two young women died in a fire on this site. Is history about to repeat itself? . . .
Rachel, a young woman in serious debt, needs to find a job fast before she's made homeless. She gets a lucky break when she is offered a great position in a successful company. But something about the place doesn't feel right, and she discovers that the building was once a Victorian sweatshop with a tragic history.
Soon her new job becomes a living nightmare. Rachel desperately wants out but she has no other way of escaping her debts. She's trapped. Then she makes a shocking discovery.
