Maid

 The Maid

Author: Nita Prose

This book was quite a change from the genre I'd been reading and for good I must say. It's very interesting and will keep you engaged throughout!

Molly is neurodivergent (while her actual condition is not called out, she's probably on the autism spectrum) and a maid at a fancy hotel. She'd always wanted to be a maid and it was her dream come true when she got a job at her current hotel. Her colleagues either didn't like her much or made fun of her due to her neurodivergence. She was very good at her work - hardworking, honest and thorough. As a result, her boss liked her and understood her. He would give her pieces of wisdom. One day she went to clean the room of one of her regular clients, the wealthy Charles Black. Only to find him dead on his bed. She was the key witness in the case, she was more than a cleaner to Mr. Black's wife and her not-so-normal behavior/conversation with the police, make her an easy suspect. Plus her attraction towards one of the hotel employees who is involved in some drug handling makes the matters worse and takes her deeper into the pit than she would like. It is hard for her to manage all that is happening and is very troubling. She is arrested by the police. The hotel doorman had always been a friend to her and had warned her where she was going wrong. Now that she was in deep trouble, he is the only one to help her. She finds out while she might have lost her grandmother, her only family and friend, she has found a new set of friends who are like family.
