When Molly brings in some old trinkets to be appraised on the show, one item is revealed to be a rare and coveted artifact worth millions.

Then, on auction day, the treasure suddenly vanishes. and Molly and her friends find themselves at the center of the boldest art heist in recent memory.
But the key to this mystery lies in the past, in a long-forgotten diary written by Molly’s Gran. For the first time ever, Molly learns about her grandmother’s secrets: how she was born into a wealthy family and fell head-over-heels in love with a young man her parents deemed below her. As fate would have it, Gran’s greatest love was someone Molly knows quite well.
A spirited heist caper and an epic love story, The Maid’s Secret is a spell-binding whodunit that will capture your heart.

If you've read any of the Maid books by Nina Prose you know they are lighthearted, easy feel-good reads. Like the first 2 Molly Maid books, this one also takes place at the Regency Grand Hotel. Molly is engaged to Juan Manuel, who also works at the hotel. When the hit reality show "Hidden Treasures" comes to the hotel to film an episode, Molly brings a shoebox with a few items for the appraisers to take a look at. Much to everyone's surprise, there is one item that turns out to be a rare and priceless treasure. It could make Molly a multimillionaire if she agrees to sell. But the item mysteriously disappears in a daring heist before the final sale.
The key to unlocking the mystery surrounding the item lies in the past-a long-forgotten diary written by Molly's Gran. The story unfolds in alternating chapters, present day and Gran's diary entries. I actually liked the diary chapters. It gives all the back story for Gran and other characters. The overall story is corny and silly. Easy and entertaining.

So glad we finally got the hear more about Gran and her history. That’s honestly what made me want to keep reading
This is part 3 of a satire who dunnit series that I’m a fan of. It’s not my usual style but it’s funny and this one wove back to the characters history. If you are loooikg for something light, this series is a go. 8/10
