In
this
breathtaking
debut
novel,
a
daring
dancer
must
take
her
twin
brother’s
place
as
a
riveter
high
atop
the
in-progress
Empire
State
Building
to
save
her
family
from
ruin.After
the
death
of
their
father,
it’s
up
to
Grace
O’Connell
and
her
twin
brother
Patrick
to
support
their
family
as
the
Great
Depression
takes
its
toll
on
New
York
City.
When
Grace
is
laid
off
from
her
dancing
gig
and
Patrick
is
injured
at
work
on
the
construction
of
the
Empire
State
Building,
desperation
leaves
them
only
one
solution:
Grace
must
disguise
herself
as
Patrick
and
take
his
place
on
the
half-built
skyscraper.She
soon
proves
herself
as
capable
as
any
man
on
the
steel,
and
her
affection
for
the
loyal
men
around
her—especially
Italian
immigrant
Joe—grows
by
the
day.
But
when
a
terrible
accident
happens
high
above
the
city
and
Grace
is
the
only
one
capable
of
saving
her
stranded
colleague,
she
must
make
a
split-second
decision
to
risk
everything
or
live
with
her
conscience
forever.Set
against
the
backdrop
of
a
city
at
a
crossroads,
this
electrifying
story
is
full
of
heart
and
hope,
family
and
friendship,
and
the
sacrifices
we
make
for
those
we love.
