George Baxter was a highly successful corporation lawyer who was always
in control of everything at the office, but almost nothing at home. When
he returned from the office at day's end, to his wife Dorothy, and his
young son Harold, he entered the world of Hazel. Hazel was the maid and
housekeeper who ran the Baxter household more efficiently than George
ran his office. She was always right, knew exactly what needed doing,
and pre-empted his authority with alarming, though, justified regularity.
