When young, ambitious Anna Toth is kicked out of school for opposing the fast-growing Communist movement in her country, Hungary, her future plans are extinguished. So she must take the job she least desires: become a maid.
When a new tenant, American diplomat Stephen Koczak, moves into the apartment she tends to, Anna chooses to work for him, despite opposition from her family, friends, and society in general and despite her growing admiration for him.
When a young, handsome, Hungarian secret police agent named Laszlo asks to date her, she knows she must agree, even though she knows it is an arranged relationship to be used to spy on her and her American boss.
With a forbidden admiration for her boss and a fake courtship with a member of the secret police, Anna's life is left tense and puzzling for months on end.
So when Koczak is forced to leave the country, Anna must decide her fate as well..."
