Summary
The number-one New York Times best-selling author of Airport reveals the inner workings of a New Orleans hotel - and the human drama unfolding behind its closed doors.
During five sultry days, the lives of the guests, the management, and the workers at New Orleans's largest and most elite hotel converge. The owner has four days to raise the money to save his financially ailing property. The general manager, once blacklisted from the hospitality business, struggles with one crisis after another. A rebellious heiress will do anything to attain her secret desires. The duke and the duchess in the lavish presidential suite are covering up a crime. And within one of the many guest rooms hides a professional thief.
Filled with memorable characters and authentic detail about the inner machinery and secrets of a five-star hotel, this gripping New York Times best seller sold millions of copies and was adapted for both film and TV. Set in a time when travel was still glamorous and grand independent hotels set the standard for luxury, it's like a vacation in itself, from the author of such behind-the-scenes blockbusters as The Moneychangers and Wheels.

A bit dated but a gripping plot
I read these as a teenager many moons ago and was reminded of them when I saw them in the Plus catalogue. It was as I remembered. Some dated language about black people which would have been of its time.
Nice to hear a thriller that’s not about murder or violence. An easy listening page turner.
Well narrated except the British accents. The English was poor and the Scottish was so bad it was funny!

Very Enjoyable!
This book is ‘of its time’ and touches on segregation and there is some (very little) offensive language used at the time. I enjoyed all the characters and will no doubt listen again.
Excellent narration.

Great story shame about the audio
a great story, seriously let down by a narrator who sounded like he should be a race horse commentator! Every sentence, inflection or nuance of writing was delivered with the same tones, notes and long before the end of the book was quite annoying. This book deserved a narrator with a greater range of voice, better understanding of pronunciations and dialects, and someone who sounded interested when reading!! one of my favourite books has NOT been spoiled, but it could be for someone experiencing it for the first time.
