In Room 33

Old hotels carry their pasts in musty hallways and darkened stairwells, their empty rooms long silent witnesses to forbidden love, whispered lies and dangerous secrets.

The Hotel Philip is aged and derelict. Once a proud and gracious host to Seattle's wealthy elite, time?and the appalling events in Room 33?brought neglect and ruin. Today, the Philip's scattering of occupants is an assortment of low-rent tenants whose choices for better accommodation are limited by poverty, booze, and criminal records. The Philip is their port of last resort.

When her stepfather dies, travel writer, Joy Cole, inherits the Hotel Philip. Her plan is to sell it for its land value, and return to her wandering lifestyle. But during a tour of the once grand and gracious hotel, her plan changes. In the Philip's grim, hoary walls she sees the chance for a new and better life, both for her lonely soul and the long-neglected hotel.

She also becomes attracted to one of the Philip's residents, the wry, enigmatic Wade Emerson, grandson of the hotel's builder.

Joy's glamorous and calculating mother Lana, and her greedy lover, both of whom hoped to gain from the Philip's sale, oppose her plan to renovate and restore the hotel?and live there while she does it. Even Wade says it's a "seriously bad idea." But neither their threats nor Wade's cool reaction, diminish her enthusiasm for going ahead.

Wade can do nothing but wait, watch and keep her close. Very close.

But not everyone is against Joy moving into the Philip. One person is delighted. The person who wants her dead?in Room 33.
