Description
London in 1905. The most luxurious house in the upscale Mayfair district hides many treasures, but also dark secrets. When the housekeeper, Mrs. King, starts asking too many questions, she is dismissed for an hour. However, she won't take it lying down and decides to take revenge. She knows very well how to do it. In the world of thieves and con artists, she feels right at home. She grew up in it. She gathers a group of women from the fringes of society who agree to be hired as maids in the house so they can together carry out the boldest heist London has ever seen. Housekeepers, maids, seamstresses – who would suspect them? They devise a cunning plan: during the long-awaited masquerade ball, they will rob the house right under the noses of the owner and her esteemed guests.
