About The Book
Parkview Manor has a secret, and eighteen-year-old Cynthia is curious!
When Cynthia Holt takes a job at a former sanitarium, now operating as an assisted living center that doubles as a hotel, she instantly discovers something more is occurring than simply providing the elderly with housing and care. Something very strange is going on behind the locked door of Room 913!
After she is repeatedly warned to stay away from the room and to not discuss it or the occupant with her co-workers, she is even more intrigued, and suspicious! Letting her curious nature guide her, she immediately begins asking questions. When she finds that Room 913 has been closed off; locked and sealed for 40 years, her curiosity turns to concern. Though rumors abound, no one seems inclined to talk about it. Not giving up so easily, Cynthia persists in her pursuit of solving the mystery, investigating the rumors until she learns the truth of what is inside the forbidden room—or does she?

My Review
Fun and Enjoyable Mystery
Well-written and enjoyable mystery with drama all rolled up into an entertaining read. The story takes quite a few twists and turns until it reaches a pleasurable and satisfactory ending. I'm pretty good at figuring out who done what in mysteries, but I did second guess myself a couple of times. I wasn't completely surprised with the end. I highly recommend Inside Room 913 to anyone who enjoys a good, suspenseful story.
