But when she discovers he's married, her carefully constructed world implodes.Determined to push through the heartbreak, Molly drags herself to work the next morning to deliver a crucial presentation. Moments before, she ducks into a janitor's closet to collect herself - and the door locks behind her. Her phone is at her desk. No one can hear her. And the campus is emptying for Thanksgiving Break.Trapped, starving, and pregnant, Molly finds a stack of stories written by the building's janitor. Each story - of isolation, obsession, and guilt - echoes pieces of her own life until she can no longer tell where her memories end and his fiction begins.Over four desperate days, fantasy and reality twist into nightmare, forcing Molly to confront the one place she never dared to go: within.Part survival thriller, part psychological confessional, What Happened in the Janitor's Closet is a darkly suspenseful and deeply human novel about confinement, guilt, and the redemptive power of storytelling - because sometimes, the stories we read start reading us back.
