A Spy in Stilettos: A Comedy of Manners, Politics and a Little Sex (The Candidate's Maid)

Melody Baker desperately needs a job.She has a shiny new PhD, but the universities aren't hiring (or at least aren't hiring her). Now she's four months behind in rent. She's running out of money. Her student loans are crashing down onto her head. And she's barely getting by on daily diet of one hard-boiled egg, a half can of white tuna, and one coffee (plus six or seven refills). She's at the end of her rope.The research position she's interviewing for won't start for weeks, but there's this opening for a parlor maid needed immediately, and she talks her way into it. And that's how she ends up at a huge mansion -- a castle, actually -- maiding for the one percent of the one percent.Does she know what she's doing? Of course not.She has to deal with entitled aristocrats, Washington wonks, delusional dilettantes, a chauvinistic charlatan, and myriad other odd birds who dominate this new world in which Melody is a stranger.And that's not all. Her new boss, an eccentric billionaire, has political plans, and she's going to need to think fast in order to survive as The Candidate's Maid.
