Event and Book

*Please note that this is not a book bundled event, meaning a book does not come with the ticket.

The National Writers Series is thrilled to announce a new event that takes place on Dec. 6 at the City Opera House and Livestreamed with #1 New York Times bestselling author Nita Prose, whose debut novel The Maid sold an astonishing million copies.

A #1 Good Morning America Book Club Pick, The Maid is at once a clever crime mystery and a compelling character study of Molly Gray, aka Molly the Maid, who finds joy in cleaning rooms to perfection, but is confounded by the messiness of human interactions. Nita will visit Traverse City to talk about The Mystery Guest, a new mystery and a new mess. Molly has been promoted to the top position of Head Maid at the glorious five-star Regency Grand Hotel, but her world is suddenly turned upside down when a world-renowned mystery author drops dead—very dead—on the hotel’s tea room floor. It’s up to Molly the Maid to uncover the truth, no matter how dirty.

Doors open at 6 p.m. with live music and a cash bar. The event begins at 7 p.m. and includes a Q&A and author signing.

*Please note that this is not a book bundled event. You can buy a copy of the book at the event if you choose.
