Review Quotes:
"Little book, big plot" - Spotlight Reviews
"The Executive Suite" delivered an enjoyable, solid read. Perfect for a commute or bedtime story for adults, the pacing of this short story moves along nicely. Every moment propelled me as the reader forward. The author's experience in the hotel industry is apparent, and makes Janine and her colleagues all the more real. While the twist had me tinkering on the edge of believability, the ending is much more satisfying than I originally guessed. A uniquely presented whodunit.
"Sensational" - Primer Reviews
Normally, short novels do not develop their characters fully. I did not find this to be the case in this instance. It was such compact and concise writing that the essence of every character and the scene in which that, or those characters were involved in, flowed perfectly. I especially enjoyed the short chapters. They could all be read in minutes, but you couldn't just stop after any one of them, the storyline moved so swiftly. Great read. Highly recommended.
