   Molly, a neurodivergent maid, finds the rich and mean Mr. Black dead in his bed. It turns out he was murdered. And Molly ends up under suspicion for his murder. But some of the people at the hotel are not who they seem. And they may have used Molly's neurodivergence to their advantage. 
   I enjoyed this book quite a bit. I know some said it was inconsistent, but I find that, as a neurodivergent person, I can see how her seemingly very shifting rules don't shift as much as they seem to do to some people. I know that certain rules in my mind are different than how a "normal" person may have their rules. And once you get to the end it all makes sense, at least to me. 
   I didn't guess the killer, though I guess another one of the "plot twists" (the one with her grandmother.)

Narrator Rating: 3.5 stars
  She did a decent job but for most of the book she had kind of pout to her voice which was childlike and annoying for a 20-something woman.

Ich habe das Buch leider bei ca 40% DNFed.. 
Die Story hat mich nicht wirklich gepackt und irgendwann habe ich mich nurnoch durchgequält. 
Ich bin sicher, das es besonders Krimi Fans gut gefallen könnte, besonders da die Perspektive des (wahrscheinlich autistischen) Zimmermädchens mal etwas anderes ist. 
Das Buch ist keinen Falls schlecht geschrieben oder sehr vorhersehbar, aber leider hat mich die Handlung überhaupt nicht mitgezogen.
