Opis
房務員茉莉一個人孤伶伶地活在世上。她很習慣在麗晶大飯店工作時被人視而不見,很習慣將枕頭拍鬆,很習慣拭去污垢、灰塵和熙來攘往的住客不為人知的秘密。她只是一名房務員──別人為什麼要注意她?
然而某一天,富豪布萊克陳屍在她準備清掃的房間裡。警方介入調查後,不善交際、容易引發誤會的性格讓茉莉成為眾人懷疑的頭號嫌疑犯。
當解剖報告出爐,富豪死於窒息,而且頸部竟有茉莉的指紋!更糟的是,調酒師斬釘截鐵表示茉莉「絕對有殺人的能力和動機」,富豪的妻子也怪她「老是自己貼上來又愛管東管西」。
面對排山倒海而來的不利證據,茉莉一下沉默不語、一下答非所問,最後被警方以一級謀殺罪逮捕。
外婆過世後便無依無靠的她,該如何洗刷嫌疑?真正的兇手究竟是誰,犯案動機又是什麼?看似毫無關聯的門房、洗碗工和陌生律師之間,誰才握有關鍵證據?

I liked the representation of Molly being neurodivergent (even though I got anxious many times, wanting to just hold her hand and help her make sense of the world). I really liked the found family aspect of everything. I really liked the hotel setting. The epilogue was the cherry on top.The one thing I didn't like was the execution of the mistery itself. I feel like it had a very slow start and got resolved very quickly (too quickly?).
it was really hard to get into the book. i personally found it annoying that Molly was so blind to se everything happening to her. i predicted who did it in like the first 100 pages but i wasn’t expecting how. it wasn't a good book it wasn’t a bad one either. 3⭐️
