Cecilia Bassingthwaite is the ideal Victorian woman. She is also a thief. Just like the other members of the Wisteria Society of Lady Scoundrels, she drinks tea, blackmails her friends, and has strange ways of acquiring treasures. She has a dark, traumatic past and a domineering aunt, but, for the most part, lives a pleasant life. That is until the men show up. When the society is in danger, Cecilia will have to team up with a handsome criminal to save the women who raised her, with the hope of proving to them that she is as ruthless as they are.
