Meet Liza from Prisoners in the Palace – Day #4

In Michaela MacColl’s debut, Prisoners in the Palace, Liza’s luxurious life came to a halt when her parents were killed in a carriage accident, leaving her an orphan. Now homeless and with debts to pay, she acquires a job as a maid to Pricess Victoria – but with a catch, she must also act as a spy! I hope you enjoy this interview with Liza! Your luxurious lifestyle and expecting to join society must have made becoming a maid hard to swallow. What was the toughest part?

I mean, I knew my family was different than, say, Emily’s family, but it just seemed NORMAL to me. Plus, once Lisbeth came, it actually seemed easier than having my mom around all the time, breathing down my neck about stuff. I was so happy that she wasn’t prying into my secrets that I didn’t really think she might have one of her own! How long had Matthew been on your radar? Um, since the first day I walked into school? No, seriously. He was … Read entire article »
