'Had me gripped from the beginning'

DO NOT DISTURB. WHODUNNIT IN PROGRESS… Molly the maid sees everything at The Regency Grand Hotel.

So when a renowned guest drops very dead on the tearoom floor, sullying the hotel’s five-star reputation, it falls to Molly to sweep up the clues.

An unfortunate accident? Or a murderous mess?

The answers to the mystery lie behind one guest’s door – and only the maid holds the key…
