Molly Dunn is not like everyone else. She struggles with social skills and interprets people literally. 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 had to navigate 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 turned on its head 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 very dead in his bed. Before she knows what's happening, Molly's odd demeanor has the police targeting her as their lead suspect and she finds herself in a web of subtext and nuance she has no idea how to untangle. Fortunately for Molly, a medley of friends she didn't realize she had refuses to let her be charged with murder--but will they be able to discover the real killer before it's too late? A Clue-like, locked-room mystery and a heartwarming journey of the spirit, The Maid explores what it means to be the same as everyone else and yet entirely different--and reveals that all mysteries can be solved through connection to the human heart"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Hotel cleaning personnel $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Murder $x Investigation $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Hotels $v Fiction. 650 6 $a PreÌposeÌs aÌ l'entretien des chambres $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 650 6 $a Meurtre $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 $x EnqueÌtes $0 (CaQQLa)201-0131276 $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 650 6 $a HoÌtels $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 650 7 $a FICTION / Mystery & Detective / Traditional. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a FICTION / Thrillers / Crime. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Hotel cleaning personnel. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00961730 650 7 $a Hotels. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00961767 650 7 $a Murder $x Investigation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01029788 650 7 $a Hotel cleaning personnel $v Fiction. $2 sears 650 7 $a Homicide $v Fiction. $2 sears 650 7 $a Hotels and motels $v Fiction. $2 sears 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726581 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Thrillers (Fiction) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726755 655 7 $a Suspense fiction. $2 gsafd 655 7 $a Thrillers (Fiction) $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 lcgft 776 08 $i Online version: $a Prose, Nita. $t The maid $d New York : Ballantine Group, [2022] $z 9780593356166 $w (DLC) 2020057417 941 $a 4 $n 1 952 $l ZBPE245 $d 20230323121825.0 $n 10 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20221214151047.0 $n 19 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20220615152910.0 $m CBC MYS PRO $n 17 $p own 1 LP 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20220519081604.0 $n 2 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C2DF8F34D6AC11EC8A976CB5253FDB2A 994 $a C0 $b IOZInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
