When the house's owner, the Duke of Pelham, finally returns, he is grimly determined to find a suitable wifebut completely unprepared for what the season has to offer.

According to her guardian Aunt Letitia, lack of competition has made Jenny put on airs; in London, she will get the set-down she sorely deserves. Indeed, at her first important London party, Jenny's blatant disdain for the duke leads to disaster.

The result is a mischievous scheme that will insure Jenny's social success and determine the fate of the close-knit family of servants at 67 Clarges Street...
