The Girls on Floor 13

Detective Maria Miller, Book 3

De: Helen Phifer

Narrado por: Stephanie Cannon

A light flickers in the silent room. Side by side in twin beds, the girls could be sleeping, except their pale skin is ice cold, and their closed eyes will never open again…

When the bodies of two teenage girls are discovered in a rundown New York City hotel room, Detective Maria Miller is called to the crime scene. The best friends were supposed to be at a sleepover miles away in the suburbs. With no record of the girls checking in and the room on the thirteenth floor closed off to guests, what were they doing there?

Sinister messages on their phones suggest the girls were lured to the hotel, using its reputation for hauntings as bait. The killer left no DNA behind and Maria’s efforts to trace their identity leads to a dead end. But Maria feels certain the murderer works at the hotel. How else did they access the room and know it was empty?

While Maria races to interview staff before another body turns up, the hotel manager shares an old newspaper article about an identical double murder decades before. Could the cases be linked? After a key suspect is found dead in his home, a discovery in the hotel room sends shivers down Maria’s spine. Can she uncover the secrets of the room on the thirteenth floor before she becomes its next victim?

Perfect for fans of Karin Slaughter, Mary Stone and A. J. Rivers, The Girls on Floor 13 will have you up listening late into the night and sleeping with the lights on.

Detectives With A Twist

Detective Maria Miller, and her partner Frankie are back with another edge-of-the-seat thrillers that you cannot put down!
When two teenage girls are found dead in room 1303 of the Parker Hotel, Maria and her partner are trying to figure out what is going on. The case brings back another that happened several decades earlier. Who would want to kill young women and take their feet?
While they begin their investigation, they are soon met with more questions than answers, and the darker forces around them are starting to wreak havoc on their lives. Will they survive this latest case?

This is hands down one of my favorite books of the year. I was hooked on these from the first one, and I sure do hope there are more! Maria and Frankie make a great team, and the cases always bring a bit of nail-biting and heart-stopping sections. While they are dealing with paranormal aspects of cases, I really enjoy how these have a more earthy feel, not so far-reaching as some books I have read.

Highly recommend this one if you are looking for a great police procedural with a paranormal twist!
