Marguerite is a story set in the 1920s, also known as the Roaring Twenties. This period was a time of prosperity for the Western world who got back on their feet soon after the First World War ended. 
However, the poor were struggling to keep themselves on their feet while the rich indulged in their newfound successes. Marguerite is a young woman in her 20's who comes from a privileged family and is one of the few women in the country who were fortunate enough to be able to study. She studies history in Cambridge and spends time with her Aunt Emmeline on weekends. She is successful in school and talented at literature but her life is uneventful...
That is until the tragic revelation of a family secret uncovers a new and exciting but dangerous path  in her life that begins in Birmingham's Small Heath, where a ruthless world is governed with a bloody iron fist by the Peaky Blinders. Will she go down this path and what will it lead to?

Dorothy Monroe is a petite woman with a heart too big for her chest. She's pure, kind, she looked at the world and determined all the colours of nature were miracles and needed to be remembered. She's loved photography ever since her father brought a camera home and even had a gift with the newly designed lenses ever since she could wrap her small hands around the clunks of metal. Thomas Shelby: gangster; and war hero; he reads the devils script as if it were the morning newspaper - the list will go on. I don't need to say much more, you already know him. The Shelby family, as part of Tommy's expansion plan, bought a large area of the woods on the outskirts of Small Heath, far away from the Birmingham smog, there they built safe houses and kept heavy machinery; maybe even once they kept a large crate of stolen guns, supposedly belonging to the Government. Unbeknownst to Dorothy, who stumbled around the woods (a bulky camera in hand), she had explored the woods many times, taking photos of all the things that shined bright enough, but had never come across the peculiar buildings that held many dangers. That is, of course, until she knocks upon one of the doors, ready to give an earful to whoever had built over this precious patch of land, only to come face to face with one Thomas Shelby. -loosely follows the plot of season 1- *disclaimer* I do not own the Peaky Blinders or any of Steven Knights characters, only the story of Dorothy and her own plot line. This trope is cliche and overused, but idc, I like it.
