The book for October is The Maid by Nita Prose.

Book Description:

A charmingly eccentric hotel maid discovers a guest murdered in his bed, turning her once orderly world upside down- and inspiring a motley crew of unexpected allies to band together to solve the mystery. Molly Dunn is not like everyone else. She struggles with social skills and interprets people literally. Her gran used to interpret the world for her, codifying it into simple rules that Molly could live by. Since Gran died a few months ago, 25 year old Molly has had to navigate life’s complexities all by herself. No matter- she throws herself with gusto into her work as a hotel maid. Her unique character, along with her obsessive love of cleaning and proper etiquette, make her an ideal fit for the job. Molly’s orderly life is turned on its head the day she enters the suite of the infamous and wealthy Charles Black, only to find it in a state of disarray and Mr. Black very dead in his bed. Before she knows what’s happening, Molly’s odd demeanor has the police targeting her as their lead suspect. A Clue-like, locked-room mystery and a heartwarming journey of the spirit.
