Three
triplets—sisters estranged since birth—are thrust together in
glittering 1926 London to fight for their inheritance, only to learn
they can’t trust anyone—least of all each other.
Episode
one: When three teenage girls, Thalia, Erato and Clio, are summoned to
the excitement of fast-paced London—a frivolous, heady city full of
bright young things—by Hestia, an aunt they never knew they had, they
are shocked to learn they are triplets and the rightful heiresses to
their deceased mother's fortune. All they need to do is find a way to
claim the fortune from their greedy half-brother, Charles. But with the
odds stacked against them, coming together as sisters may be harder than
they think.
Episode two: After quickly
settling into their aunt’s London townhouse, the girls soon meet their
half-brother, Charles, an up-and-coming politician who would like
nothing better than to see them disappear and his family name left
intact. He refuses to bestow any of their inheritance upon them unless
all three leave the city for good. The girls decide to form a united
front and fight Charles together. However, when Clio—desperate for money
for the ailing mother who adopted her—approaches Charles without
telling anyone, she finds out a secret so shocking it could change
everything forever.
Episode
three: Relationships are strained as keeping secrets begins to take a
toll. With each sister now having something to gain, but even more to
lose, they each need the inheritance money more than ever. But when
their lies are finally revealed, who will the winner be?
Episode
four: Intoxicated by the city, Thalia receives attention for her wild
behaviour and society begins to ask questions. In the meantime, the
final sister—desperate to impress her crush with her status—approaches
Charles for money. But what game will Charles play now that he knows the
sisters are all willing to betray one another?
Episode
five: Disgusted with Charles and his cruel tricks, the girls finally
agree to band together in hopes of finding another way to win the
fortune from Charles. However, when Thalia runs into trouble at a party
and one of her sisters has her sent away, it divides the girls even more
fiercely than before. Only a chance encounter which reveals a shocking
truth about their mother might be able to bring them together to defeat
Charles—once and for all.
Episode
six:With a wedding on the cards, the future looks bright, despite the
sisters now doubting they will ever claim their mother's fortune from
Charles. But when the threesome realize they have overlooked a key
person in their quest and a series of terrible events occur, the true
owner of the entire fortune is finally revealed and the girls' destinies
are changed forever.
