Abandoned and starving, sisters Trixie and Lily White had nothing until the ruthless Stella came looking for their runaway older sister. Instead, she took the two young girls as payment for a debt.
Forced into the shadows of the city's underworld, the girls are swept into a life of crime.
Under Stella's control, the sisters were forced into a life of crime, surviving as part of a ruthless gang of girl thieves.
Among a gang of pickpocketing street girls, Trixie quickly proves herself. Quick with her hands, quicker with her wits, she soon became Stella's most trusted thief.
When the enigmatic Felix Huxley, a self-made diamond dealer with a murky past, arrives in London, Stella sees a golden opportunity. But as Trixie prepares to rob him, she discovers something she never expected: a man who looks past the street girl and sees the woman beneath.
Torn between the pull of freedom and the chains of loyalty, Trixie dreams of a life beyond the grimy streets of Victorian London.
But when Stella discovers Trixie is about to walk away from her, she makes a brutal move that puts Lily's life on the line.
Now Trixie must make an impossible choice: betray the man who can offer her a future away from crime... or lose the only family she has left.
