Megan Goldin, author said: "I am honoured The Escape Room will be published by Trapeze in 2019 with so many exciting plans afoot for its launch in the UK and Ireland, the birthplace of the locked room mystery. It's my hope that The Escape Room will deliver readers plenty of suspense, while at the same time spark conversations on everything from sexual harassment at work, to back-stabbing office politics, to the nasty effects of jealousy and naked greed. Most of all, I hope it will keep readers up into the wee hours of the night as they race to get to the end."
