Oxford English Dictionary

Ana was born into the great wealth and privilege of a Russian Countess; but the Russian Revolution ends that world. Ana finds herself, and what remains of her family, living in a small house in London. With all of her wealth gone, she is living on the charity of her former governess, but is determined to make a new life for herself. Armed with a manual on how to be a domestic servant, Ana hires herself out as a maid, but she soon finds a lot more than what she was expecting.
