It is 1919. A year after WW1. He fought in the war. You are John Shelby's wife. He came back from war different than before. He was still your husband and that's all you could ask for. He is now more into the family business. The Peaky Blinders.
Tommy Shelby stole guns from Belfast and now the police are after them. The police sent investigator Camble. He is known for his unsavoury methods and Winston Churchill favours him.
You were walking back from the bakers when two policemen ambushed you and beat you to the inch of your life before Cambell walked over and asked you questions about the guns. You of course didn't know. So he offered the gang a deal.
You managed to make your way home. Polly and Ada immediately sat you down and started tending to your injuries. The shelby brothers walked in and John immediately went to your side.
