With the blades sewn into their flat caps and the weapons tucked into their jackets, people bowed their heads when passing them in the streets. You were considered lucky to have not had a run in with any of the three elder Shelby brothers. Arthur was the eldest. He was known for his fighting. You would often find him in the ring against somebody who was not his size. He went mad during the war and his return was nothing hit a relief for his mind.

Evelyn Heron, the daughter of Birminghams new leader, has spent years on the run, living in the shadows in an effort to reunite with her son. When she stumbles upon the Peaky Blinders, Thomas is quick to realize that she is the only woman who can help him take back his throne - for a price. DISCLAIMER: All characters that appear in Peaky Blinders belong to Steven Knight & the rest of the writers/directors. Some elements remain true to the original plot, other elements do not. This does not follow the timeline of the show whatsoever - it was my own AU/rendition where the Blinders exist. Canonically, this storyline would occur between seasons one & two!
