The Concierge by Abby Corson
4.0
MINI REVIEW
Abby Corson's, The Concierge, is a delightful and quirky cosy crime debut that captivated me from start to finish. The 73-year-old protagonist, Hector Harlow, brings a unique charm to the story as the long-time concierge at Cavengreen hotel. As he recounts a shocking murder at the hotel to his retired publisher friend Helen, the narrative unfolds with Hector's distinctive perspective. Initially unsure about the writing style, I quickly grew fond of Hector's quirky and obsessively detailed account, making the book an enjoyable read. The story takes unexpected turns, and the satisfying twist at the end adds to the overall appeal. The Concierge is a must-read for those seeking a fun and engaging cosy crime novel.
