The plot of The Maid focuses on a young girl Molly who works as a maid at a grand hotel and we are taken on a journey of her struggles to navigate through her life now that her closes friend and guardian has passed away. It is not until one of the most distinguished guests at the hotel dies and Molly is the first to discover the victim. From then on, it is a story of never-ending intrigue and mystery which just hooks you in until the very last page.
I have not loved a character as much as Molly in a while. She is innocent but not so much so that the reader is annoyed with her, which I thought was a realistic touch. I could not help but to root for her from the beginning. I thoroughly enjoyed it and I can't wait until the next book in the series comes out.
