In 1911 England, young Daisy Dobbs is sent far away from her mother and twin brothers to work as a hardworking scullery maid. Living in a grand, imposing house owned by two very strict ladies, Daisy works tirelessly to scrub the floors, wash heavy dishes, and peel endless piles of potatoes. She occasionally makes silly mistakes, like accidentally hanging bright red bloomers out the window for the entire neighborhood to see. Her only real escape from the drudgery is sneaking quiet moments to borrow fascinating books from the elegant parlor. But when a terrifying kitchen fire suddenly erupts, Daisy must quickly use her wits to protect the house. Her incredible bravery might just earn her the greatest, most life changing reward she could ever imagine.
