Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

Prolific novelist Hunt knows how to hold a reader's interest, and her latest yarn is no exception. As Hurricane Felix races toward Tampa, three women's paths unexpectedly converge when they're marooned in an elevator. The action takes place over the course of one tension-packed day. Michelle Tilson is a smart, 33-year-old headhunter who is apt to fudge the truth in the interests of more business. She's in a passionate relationship with a widower, who's reluctant to introduce her to his three children. Michelle's biological clock is ticking, and when she discovers she is pregnant, she's ready to press for a commitment. When Michelle boards the elevator to give her lover the news—instead of fleeing the impending disaster—she's joined by office cleaner Isabel Suarez, who has a frightening secret, and Gina Rossman, who is on her way to confront her workaholic husband about his extramarital affair. Trapped, the women discuss relationships and faith, and make some startling discoveries. Although the idea of characters stuck in an elevator is nothing new, Hunt packs the maximum amount of drama into her story, and the pages turn quickly. The present tense narration lends urgency as the perspective switches among various characters. Readers may decide to take the stairs after finishing this thriller.

Product Description

In the path of a devastating hurricane, three very different women find themselves trapped in the elevator of a high-rise office building. All three conceal shattering secrets—unaware that their secrets center on the same man.

The betrayed wife, eager to confront her faithless husband, with rage in her heart and a gun in her pocket…

The determined mistress, finally ready to tell her lover she wants marriage and a family…

The fugitive cleaning woman, tormented by the darkest secret of all…

As the storm rages ever closer, these three must unite to fight for their lives in the greatest test of courage—and faith—any woman could ever face. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just closed "the door" on the Elevator, July 6, 2007
By A. Hesterman (Canal Winchester, OH) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
WOW!! I have been greatly anticipating this book since I finished "Uncharted" last summer and it was very much worth the wait. I could not put the book down and finished it in 2 days (maybe not too incredible for other readers who finish books quickly...but it is for me!!) Probably not as much spiritual content in this book as with Angela's other books. But still a VERY GOOD read!!! Christian fiction can be very predictable. One of the many reasons I enjoy Angela's writing is that she is purposefully unpredictable. She is one of the few Christian authors whom I absolutely enjoy reading. Francine Rivers is another "unpredictable" Christian fiction author. These women get a 5-star rating from me every time.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Elevator by Angela Hunt, July 1, 2007
This was a page turner! I didn't care that much for the present tense storytelling, but I got used to it and the story was well worth it. I ended up staying up waaaaaaay too late so I could find out what happens. Don't miss it.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Elevator - a great ride, August 1, 2007
While I don't often read Christian stories - too good girl for me - this book was outstanding with great plots and a surprise but not preaching ending.
