Molly does her job diligently, and she and her grandmother live a simple but happy life together. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When Gran passes away, Molly is cast adrift and takes solace in her job, using the regularity and familiarity of it to help her cope with the loss. Then, a murder of a powerful man at Molly\u2019s hotel puts her in jeopardy, because investigations show that she was at the scene of the crime and could possibly be charged. Molly says she is innocent but will anyone believe her?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This was a very interesting book primarily because of its quirky heroine. From the descriptions of her straight-shooting mannerisms and thought processes, it is clear that Molly is on the autism spectrum. She speaks her mind and has no \u201cfilters\u201d. She also takes people at face value, not suspecting guile or duplicity. Thus she is taking in by unsavory characters at the hotel, who use her na\u00efvet\u00e9 for selfish, nefarious purposes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>The longer you live, the more you learn. People are a mystery that can never be solved. Life has a way of sorting itself out. Everything will be okay in the end. If it\u2019s not okay, it\u2019s not the end.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Fortunately, there are also some good folks around who come to Molly\u2019s aid, and she, a smart, brave woman, does her part in bringing the guilty to book. I quite liked Molly\u2019s character and was rooting for her to make it out of this mess intact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Narrator Lauren Ambrose was so perfect for this book\u2019s narration! She really brought Molly and her slow, old-school ways to life; Molly\u2019s personality is what kept me tethered and interested. The book was fun, and fast-paced &#8211; recommended!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rating: 4.5\/5 .
