Duchess in the Attic (屋根裏部屋の公爵夫人, Yane Urabeya no Kōshaku Fujin) is a Japanese light novel series written by Mori and illustrated by Fuyuko Aoi.

A manga adaptation illustrated by Maki Hayashi began serialization in Enterbrain's B's Log Comic online magazine in March 2019.
Countess Opal was assaulted on the night of high society, leading to malicious slander and the loss of her reputation. Years of isolation later, she finds himself married off to Duke Hubert as a deal to cover his debts. Things are horrible in her newlywed life, being forced to live an attic and treated with hostility by the servants. Making it even more unusual is Hubert's childhood friend Stella already resides in the mansion and the servants all adore her.
