The Mystery Guest by Nita Prose

The Mystery Guest

Book 2 of the Molly the Maid series.

Molly Gray from The Maid is back! She is now head maid at the Regency Grand Hotel and almost nothing escapes her eye for detail. Then a guest is murdered in the hotel, and it’s not just anyone, it is famous author of mysteries JD Grimthorpe.

The police suspect that Molly has something to do with the murder, but she doesn’t. She is hiding that she did know the victim once upon a time, and he knew her. The story is filled with flashbacks to Molly’s youth when she first met JD Grimthorpe. Does the murder have to do with the past? Or was the bestselling author hated by more people than just those he wronged a long time ago?

I love Molly, she is socially awkward but she is loyal and clever. It’s great to see that Nita Prose chose to include Gran in this book again. And I hope that there will be many sequels because we need Molly solving more crimes!
