I was very unhappy with this book in the first few chapters.
The bit where Molly discovers the body and then calls and recalls the front desk about it read oddly enough that I got confused and read it two more times. My husband and I fought over its meaning. Later discovered a missing scene was there and that made me a little angry.
. Either way, I ended up quite liking the book by the end. 

I found myself fond of Molly and Juan Manual immediately and their characters and Molly’s strict thinking about her job and her situation made for an interesting read. 

While I feel like there are no clues to actually help you figure out the murder, the mystery is almost the least important part of this book. 

Lastly, the flashbacks of anything besides her grandma were annoying. Hate to say it.
