Pretense Abdicator is whip-smart, socially awkward and angry. When passed over for a well-deserved promotion at a prestigious financial firm, she hatches a get-even plan; embezzle money from her wealthiest clients, assume a new identity, and flee the country. But on September 11, 2001, she is summoned to her manager’s office on the eighty-ninth floor of the World Trade Center. As her boss and the FBI are confronting her with ironclad evidence of embezzlement, a passenger plane hits the North Tower and Pretense takes that opportunity to make a run for it.
