London. Late nineteenth century. Bella Waverley, the daughter of a drunken aristocrat, is forced to work as a maid for "bed and table". The girl does all the black work around the house and rests only in the kitchen - in a few years she has made great strides in cooking. One day on Piccadilly, right in front of Bella, an omnibus runs over a young woman. Dying, the unfortunate one puts a letter in the girl's hand. Unable to contain her curiosity, Bella unseals the envelope and discovers... an invitation to the position of cook in the kitchen of Queen Victoria herself. Such a chance cannot be missed! And Bella makes a risky decision - to appear at Buckingham Palace disguised as a dead woman. From now on her name is Helen Barton, and life promises exciting prospects, if, of course, will be able to avoid prison for deceiving her majesty.
