Waterstones Says

Boasting a formidable amateur sleuth in Molly the maid, Prose’s captivating whodunit is a page-turning tour around the Regency Grand Hotel in search of a cold-blooded killer.

I am your maid. I know so much about you. But what do you know about me?

Molly the Maid is all alone in the world. A nobody. She's used to being invisible in her job at the Regency Grand Hotel, plumping pillows and wiping away the grime, dust and secrets of the guests who pass through. She's just a maid - why should anyone take notice?

But Molly is thrown into the spotlight when she discovers an infamous guest, Mr Black, very dead in his bed. This isn't a mess that can be easily cleaned up. And so Molly becomes embroiled in a hunt for the truth, learning who to trust as she navigates the secret underbelly of the Regency Grand Hotel.

Escapist, charming, and introducing a truly original heroine, The Maid is a story about how everyone deserves to be seen, and how the truth isn't always black and white - it's often found in the dirtier, grey areas in between...

“You think you know who did it but it is not that simple.”

Smart storytelling! Absolutely blown away! The narrative benefits from a slow but steady start, which reminded me of Kazuo Ishiguro’s The Remains of the Day and Gail Honeyman’s Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine for... More
