  • "The Queen of England has concocted a plan in which Lady Georgie is to entertain a Bavarian princess and conveniently place her in the playboy Prince's path, in the hopes that he might finally marry. But queens never take money into account. Georgie has very little, which is why she moonlights as a maid-in-disguise. She must draw up plans: clean house to make it look like a palace; have Granddad and her neighbor pretend to be the domestic staff; un-teach Princess Hanni the English she's culled from American gangster movies; cure said Princess of her embarrassing shoplifting habit; and keep an eye on her at parties. Then there's the worrying matter of the body in the bookshop and Hanni's unwitting involvement with the Communist Party."

  • "1930s London. Poor Lady Georgiana-thirty-fourth in line to the throne-has nothing to serve her Bavarian princess houseguest, even though the Queen of England has requested that she entertain her. Then there's the matter of the body in the bookshop and the princess's unwitting involvement with the Communist party. It's enough to drive a girl mad."@en

  • "The Queen of England has concocted a plan in which Georgie is to entertain a Bavarian princess and conveniently place her in the playboy Prince's path, in the hopes that he might finally marry. Between cleaning house, having family impersonate domestic staff, the body in the bookshop, it's enough to drive a girl crazy."@en

  • "Penniless aristocrat Lady Georgie must help Princess Hanni of Bavaria unlearn the English she has learned from American gangster films, break her of her shoplifting habit, and investigate a murder."
  • "Baked beans and boiled eggs. That's what my expected houseguest, Bavarin Princess Maria Theresa Hannelore Wilhelmina Mathilda, will have to eat if I don't get help posthaste. You see, the Queen of England has concocted a plan in which I am to entertain the princess, conveniently placing her in the playboy prince's path, in the hopes he might finally marry. But there's one thing queens never take into account: money. Of which I have little, ever since my brother, Binky, cut off my allowance. And which is why I moonlight as a maid in disguise. (How am I to hire a maid when I am a maid?) So, like Her Roayl Highness, I must draw up plans: Plan one: Clean house in manner of palace, have Granddad and neighbor pretend to be staff. Plan two: Blackmail Binky and horrid sister-in-law into sending a few quid. Plan three: Unteach Princess Hanni English culled from American gangster movies and teach proper English--lest she address queen as "old broad." Plan four: Cure said princess of embarrassing shoplifting habit. Plan five: Keep eye on wild princess at parties, where she drinks like a fish and dances too close to Darcy O'Mara, the cad who's unfortunately stolen my heart too. Oh, and then there's the rather more worrying matter of the body in the bookshop and Hanni's unwitting involvement with the communist party. I really don't want to be held responsible for single-handedly instigating another English-German war. It's enough to drive a girl potty ..."@en
