Klappentext zu „The Supreme Lie “
Fifteen-year-old Gloria is maid to Afalia's tyrannical Head of State, Madame Suprema. When the country is hit by unprecedented flooding, Madame Suprema runs away, fearing she will be blamed for the crisis. To cover up this cowardly act Gloria has to pretend to be Madame Suprema and is thrust into a world of corrupt and desperate politicians.
