Movement is responsible for breaking up pallets off the delivery truck early in the morning before customers hit Town Shop in Pottstown, New York. The division’s boss, Meredith, is universally reviled so when a chance shows up to get her a promotion and off their backs, the store workers hatch a plan. The character portrayals of low-wage workers, each with their own back stories and motivations, is the best part of this engaging novel. A brilliant description of work in the age of Amazon, the immense readable novel is proof you don’t need a murder mystery to make things gripping.
