Murder With Reservations
Elaine Viets
Living life on the lam and working wherever she can find
a paycheck, Helen Hawthorne has a knack for keeping a low
profile. But when her co-worker dies, and her two-timing ex-
husband tracks her down in South Florida, it’s going to get
a lot harder to fly under the radar… Working at Sybil’s Full Moon Hotel in Fort Lauderdale keeps
Helen both financially and physically fit. But cleaning up
after hotel guests is not like cleaning a house—it’s like
cleaning fifteen houses in a single day. Not to mention the
dreaded 323, the hotel’s most notorious room. The guests in
323 are always drunk, loud, and rude—and, worst of all,
they never tip. When a maid goes missing the day after a
disastrous mess in 323, the rest of the cleaning staff
chalk it up to job burnout, and imagine that Rhonda has
finally ditched the housekeeping gig to run off with the
dreamy, rich boyfriend she’s always talking about. But then Rhonda turns up dead in a Dumpster, and no one
feels safe and snug in South Florida—especially not Helen.
Another dead body means another chance for the cops to find
her. And to make matters worse, her ex-husband is hot on
her trail, checking into the very hotel where she works.
Sadly, the cops don’t seem to care much about a murdered
maid—but they have noticed there’s something shady about
the victim’s coworker and her not-quite-truthful story. And
if she doesn’t manage to dodge their questions and shake
off her ex, it could be checkout time for Helen...
