London, 1952, the world is watching as a young princess takes centre stage... Eve Brown, a senior housemaid at Buckingham Palace, battles with an abusive husband and seeks a better life for her daughter and herself. Lucy Smith, young and ambitious, navigates the challenges of societal expectations and personal dignity, driven by her mother's aspirations for a better marital match. American journalist Miranda Carlton, reeling from personal loss, dives into the palace's world under a guise, aiming to pen a groundbreaking story, only to find herself entangled in a web of personal and professional dilemmas. Together, these women, through shared lunches and secrets, form an unbreakable bond, offering support and strength in a time of great change. Their stories explore themes of female resilience, the pursuit of independence, and the complexity of relationships against the 1950s' backdrop of gender roles and royal intrigue. Through their eyes, readers are given a glimpse into the intricacies of palace life, the era's societal expectations, and the personal battles waged behind closed doors, all framed by a historically significant event.
