It is all wrapped up in a rich, compelling story that keeps tight hold of its plot and leaves you hoping, almost as ardently as Fannie, for justice to be done.

This is not subtle stuff. Would any young servant in Frannie’s position really have spoken and behaved in this way? Unlikely, but this is drama as wish fulfilment.
