I straighten the apron wrapped around my waist and swipe the key card in the guest room door. As I place the cleaning bucket by my feet, I see the woman lying unmoving on the plush carpet, her eyes frozen.
Each morning, I arrive at the luxury Cedarwood Manor hotel, put on my crisp maid’s uniform and clean the rooms. I take great care in my work as I slip from one floor to the other.
Most guests barely know my name. I’m invisible to them. That’s ok. I prefer people didn’t know my secrets.
But today a woman has been found dead in her room and a ten-year-old little girl has been reported missing from the hotel.
Today, someone has left me a note saying they know who I am.
But they must be mistaken. I’ll make sure they are.
A tense ‘just one more page’ emotional rollercoaster of a read that will have you racing to the twisty end. Readers of The Woman in the Window, The Girl on the Train and Gone Girl will be absolutely gripped by The Hotel Maid.
