Hotel Ambrosia - You. Cannot. Escape

Robyn is obsessed with the Ambrosia, the hotel opposite her flat. Its dark history and shady-looking long-term guests are so fascinating to the 17-year-old true crime fan that she often sits at her window watching the hotel through her binoculars. She knows the staff's routines, the guests' habits and the odd dirty secret. Robyn secretly dreams of cracking a cold case. But then she witnesses an abduction, and suddenly all of this is not a game any longer. She knows at once that she has to help the victim. There's just one problem: Robyn's illness means she can't leave her sixth-floor flat. How on earth is she going to solve the case?

 

The creepy Ambrosia hotel is reminiscent of the famous and much-hyped 'horror hotel' Cecil

A gripping YA detective story with true crime elements that holds great appeal for the target audience

The narrative is broken up by emails, a timeline and exciting research documents

Tropes: missing person, cold case

For all fans of Holly Jackson's A GOOD GIRL'S GUIDE TO MURDER and ONLY MURDERS IN THE BUILDING
