It follows Hester, a young, ambitious girl, who finds a job as a lady's maid in order to better her prospects, as well as to escape the inevitable Small Town Boredom. Working in an isolated household of Impoverished Patricians, she ends up falling in love with the young lady she serves. Lady Lucy is a sensitive and talented young woman, striving to escape her stifling, conservative surroundings. She is desperately lonely, and, after a while, she seems to return Hester's affections. Hester is overjoyed. There is a catch, though: her intelligent, passionate Lady Lucy is also a fascist sympathizer with a penchant for dabbling in international affairs...

Awesome McCoolname - Lucy Elaine Fitzmartin. Sounds like it also belongs to a very sweet person. It doesn't.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })

Aroused by Their Voice - At their first meeting, Lucy can't help but notice, how deep and pleasant Eugen's voice is. (Overlaps with Evil Sounds Deep.)

Aristocrats Are Evil - Averted with Eleanor. Despite being an "Honourable Miss", she is the sweetest cinnamon roll around. Played straight with... pretty much everyone else.

Ambition Is Evil - Averted with Hester and Sophie. The former wants to find a place in a wealthy household and travel the world, the latter is very determined to become a famous jazz singer, but they are both really nice people. Played more or less straight with Lucy.

comment
Abusive Parents - Lucy had an easily irritable, creepily possessive father and a manipulative, implied sadistic, unhealthily perfectionist mother. This part was based on very-much-real Diana Mitford's childhood. The author actually toned it down.
