Based on the true story of Sarah Rachel Russell [1814-1880]. An English Beautician, con artist, businesswoman, entrepreneur, suspected brothel manager and felon who lived during the Victorian era in London, England.

Come and hear the story of how she used her position to blackmail the most elite women of London’s upper classes…and what happened next!
