Have you ever made a big mistake?


Samantha Sweeting, type A personality and a lawyer on a fast track to being a partner, makes a gigantic, career-wrecking mistake. She is so horrified that she wanders around London for hours and then randomly hops on a bus "out of town." She ends up way out in the country and stops at a rather grand estate to ask for a phone. The next thing she knows, Samantha has a new job...as a housekeeper. Will this overstressed lawyer find happiness in the country? Will she ever learn how to cook or clean or make a bed? Because, you see, Samantha is truly "The Undomestic Goddess" (by Sophie Kinsella, author of "Shopaholic" series).
