She's become a mother and a father to her three younger sisters, not that she minds because family means everything to Amerley.
When financial constraints make her relocate to a plush neighbourhood in East Legon, she puts her own dreams aside in order to be a maid to make her family's life better.
But how far should her self-sacrifice go? Doesn't her own life matter? Will she always put her family first even when it puts her own life at risk?
The Step-monster
Everyone knows stepmothers are bad, wicked and just plain evil. Buerki Puplampu cannot believe that her widowed father is getting remarried when her mother has not even been dead for long!
She just knows that Naadu Nartey is wrong for her father. It isn't even because Naadu is bigger than a hippo or because she laughs like a cow or has hair on her face and chest like a cavewoman. She just knows.
Some people call that feeling intuition, some call it superstition, some even say it's a gift. Call it what you want but Buerki's gut feelings have never failed her.
She vows to do everything in her power to save her younger brother and herself from the fate she knows is awaiting them. They will not be maltreated or abused by this new woman. She will make sure of it.
