Good Golly, Miss Molly!
This was probably my favorite "COZY" ever!
Twenty-Five year old Molly Gray is not like everyone else-she struggles with social skills and misinterprets the intentions of others. Since her Gran died a few months ago, she no longer has anybody to help her navigate the challenges she faces, but she has learned her lessons well including those picked up while watching every episode of "Columbo" over and over again with Gran.🕵🏼♂�
Who knew THOSE would come in handy?
Molly is employed as a maid at the Regency Grand, a 5 Star boutique hotel that prides itself on "sophisticated elegance and proper decorum for the modern age." and with her obsessive love of cleaning and proper etiquette, she is just the person to return the guest rooms to a "state of perfection".
She loves changing into her her crisp, clean uniform each morning, and stocking the maid's trolley with the little soaps that smell of orange blossoms and the tiny Crabtree & Evelyn shampoos. It is pleasing to leave a room pristine and to slip out without a trace-she doesn't mind being invisible.
Unfortunately, her orderly world is about to be "turned on its head" when she finds guest Mr. Black, "dead in his bed" and the Police make Molly their prime suspect!
She will need the help of her friends to clean up this mess, but who can she trust?
If you are looking for your next endearing character to root for-you have found her!
Molly is the definition of her favorite word-delightful-and I felt anxious for her as I was reading this and more and more people took advantage of her trusting heart!❤️
This charming COZY mystery by DEBUT author Nita Prose is NOW AVAILABLE!! Read it before watching the MOVIE version snapped up by Universal Studios, starring Florence Pugh.
Thank You to my friend Susan for buddy reading this with me so early!! Be sure to check out her wonderful review as well! 🥰
And a BIG Thank You to Ballantine Books for granting my wish to read a very early gifted copy, provided through NetGalley. it was my pleasure to offer a candid review!
