Molly Gray is an excellent hotel maid, completing her daily tasks by returning rooms to a “state of perfection.” She is less successful at connecting with people, struggling with social awkwardness and unkind coworkers. Her life changes dramatically when she discovers Mr. Black dead in his bed.
The Maid (2022) by Nita Prose is a captivating mystery featuring an intricately plotted storyline and likeable (and loath-able) characters. Molly, who is neurodivergent, is a charming narrator. I recommend listening to audiobook to hear her story as told from the first-person perspective. If you enjoyed Eleanor in Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine by Gail Honeyman, you’ll love Molly.
