A man who commanded a battery in France three years ago and now sits in Parliament follows a girl from Marble Arch, and finds she is Lola Breezy, a tradesman's daughter who has made up her mind to go into service as lady's maid to one of the great ladies of his own world. Cosmo Hamilton wrote plays and novels of fashionable London after the war, and the book is a period piece about class and reputation — who may love whom, and what the servants' hall knows about the drawing room.
