Paris, 1887
Clotilde de la Motte is not reaping in the new riches of Belle Epoque France. Rather, in all the splendour, her brother has wasted their entire fortune at Paris' famous brothels and gentleman's clubs. Foolishly, he gambles her away to the ruthless, mysterious and powerful Nicollier family, owners of the largest private bank in France. They are social outcasts, with Jewish origins, bought titles and gang connections. She is the daughter of a Count, with a family line that traces back centuries. 

Against her will and wishes, she is forced to marry the heir to the Nicollier fortune. The new wealth that this brings, however, is overshadowed by the family's willingness to do whatever they must do to remain powerful and wealthy. Even if it means leaving the ones you love behind.
