More about the book

Biddy Maloney, a no-nonsense maid, disapproves of the fashionable lady's maids she encounters, particularly one attending to Lady Grace de Vigne in a luxurious hotel suite. Biddy's disdain for the so-called "smart" maids stems from her belief in propriety and decency, contrasting sharply with what she perceives as the frivolity of her peers. Her resentment intensifies as she feels overshadowed by the elegance and privilege of Lady Grace's party, highlighting themes of class and social rivalry in her world.
