Behind a Mask, or a Woman's Power (Pod Maskoy ili Sila Zhenshchiny)

Jean Muir takes a job as a governess at the luxurious Coventry House and instantly charms its aristocratic inhabitants. She educates her young charge, pours evening tea for the entire family, and delights their ears with singing. But she herself wants something completely different. By arranging elegant bouquets and reading history books aloud, Jean Muir will only pull the wool over the eyes of the owners of Coventry House, while secretly preparing and implementing a cunning and ambitious plan.

The story of a young woman's rise up the social ladder in Victorian England, told by the author of 'Little Women.'
