THE NO.1 NEW YORK TIMES & SUNDAY TIMES TOP TEN BESTSELLER
Molly Gray is different from other people. She struggles with social skills and misinterprets others' intentions. Her grandmother used to help her understand the world by breaking it down into simple rules that she could follow. Since her grandmother died a few months ago, Molly, who is 25 years old, has been figuring out life on her own. No matter what, she gives her all to her job as a hotel maid.
Her unique personality and her obsession with cleaning and good manners make her the perfect person for the job. She loves putting on her clean uniform every morning, filling her cart with tiny bottles and soaps, and making sure that the guest rooms at the Regency Grand Hotel are in perfect shape. But Molly's life is turned upside down when she walks into the suite of the famous and rich Charles Black and finds it in a mess and Mr. Black dead in his bed. Before Molly knows what's going on, the cops are looking at her as their main suspect because of how strange she acts. She quickly gets caught in a web of lies that she doesn't know how to get out of.
Molly is lucky because she has friends she didn't know she had. They help her look for signs about what really happened to Mr. Black, but will they find the real killer before it's too late?
The Maid is a Clue-like locked-room mystery and a heartwarming journey of the spirit that examines what it means to be the same as everyone else and yet completely different, and reveals that all mysteries can be solved through human connection.
