Megan cautiously paced around the storeroom, looking for any chance to escape. Her eyes eventually landed above her, looking at the ceiling. As far as she was aware there was a cavity between the cieling tiles above and the actually start of the floor above. In theory she might be able to climb up, and crawl through the cavity to get back into the main body of the bookshop.
As quickly as she could, she began to rearrange boxes to allow her to reach the ceiling, and by the time she was done she was moping sweat from her brow. Almost instinctively she pulled off her shirt, revealing the black T-Shirt underneath, hanging the overshirt on one of the shelves, needing to cool down.
Taking a deep breath, she surveyed the box stack, testing it a couple of times, before finally starting her climb.
