Author Introduction
Nita Prose works in the publishing industry. She began years ago as an intern, photocopying edited manuscripts and secretly snooping the fascinating margin conversations between editors and writers. Currently, Nita is the vice president and editorial director at Simon & Schuster in Toronto, Canada, where she has the privilege of working with an incredible array of authors and publishing colleagues whom she credits with teaching her, manuscript by manuscript, book by book, the wondrous craft of writing.
Blurb
Molly Gray is not like everyone else. She struggles with social skills and misreads the intentions of others. Her gran used to interpret the world for her, codifying it into simple rules that Molly could live by.
Since Gran died a few months ago, twenty-five-year-old Molly has been navigating life’s complexities all by herself. No matter—she throws herself with gusto into her work as a hotel maid. Her unique character, along with her obsessive love of cleaning and proper etiquette, make her an ideal fit for the job. She delights in donning her crisp uniform each morning, stocking her cart with miniature soaps and bottles, and returning guest rooms at the Regency Grand Hotel to a state of perfection.
But Molly’s orderly life is upended the day she enters the suite of the infamous and wealthy Charles Black, only to find it in a state of disarray and Mr. Black himself dead in his bed. Before she knows what’s happening, Molly’s unusual demeanor has the police targeting her as their lead suspect. She quickly finds herself caught in a web of deception, one she has no idea how to untangle. Fortunately for Molly, friends she never knew she had unite with her in a search for clues to what really happened to Mr. Black—but will they be able to find the real killer before it’s too late?
My Opinion
A Perfect Thriller
If there is something like a perfect thriller, then The Maid by Nita Prose justifies every word. It was terrific with some amazing characters. My favorite is Molly who represents herself as a strong and responsible woman. Tertiary characters are also wonderful. But, the most thrilling is the climax which is simply superb. Just when you think that you have guessed the right culprit, the last few pages flips the whole plot. Indeed one of the best thriller of 2022.
I would, definitely, give the book 5 stars. Thanks to Netgalley and Harper Collins Audio for providing me an opportunity to read and review the book.
Narration
The Maid by Nita Prose is narrated by Lauren Ambrose. The narration is absolutely wonderful. Each and every word is clear and perfectly audible.
