Three small hotels on different streets in Bristol share a night-porters’ supper once a month. The regulars swap ordinary stories about lost keys and bad wedding speeches. When a guest is in real danger, the porter who knows which person each caller came to see must decide whom to trust. In every case, the hardest door to open belongs to somebody the porter already wants to know better.
Esther’s room key bends in the lock at midnight. Rob finds a second key already broken inside. Last time Esther stayed with him she left before daylight. Tonight he asks her to decide who is allowed through any door she opens. The free companion novella is The Luggage Tag That Stayed.
A lost luggage tag starts the supper tradition. A porter questions a broken key, a caller recognises her own recorded voice, and an apparently occupied room gives a woman one chance to tell the truth.
The direction is set. The books are written after you order.
A suitcase goes home with its owner. Its bright red tag stays hanging on Sian’s bell desk. When a second man arrives asking after the same girl, the musician outside the door stops juggling and stops smiling.
Esther’s room key bends in the lock at midnight. Rob finds a second key already broken inside. Last time Esther stayed with him she left before daylight. Tonight he asks her to decide who is allowed through any door she opens.
Lucy recognises the voice requesting a wake-up call. It is hers, recorded years ago for a radio play. Simon thinks he knows who is listening from the payphone across the street. Both know the last person to use that line has vanished.
A red hanger on Room Eight has kept staff out all evening. Jill knows nobody checked in. Dennis knows a woman came upstairs barefoot. The last time these two disagreed about a guest, Jill walked away from both the hotel and the man.
The monthly supper gives Book 1’s porter someone to cover his desk when a guest cannot get safely into her room.
