London, 1799. Dora Blake, an aspiring jewelry artist, lives with her odious uncle atop her late parents' once-famed shop of antiquities. After a mysterious Greek vase is delivered, her uncle begins to act suspiciously. Intrigued by her uncle's peculiar behaviour, Dora turns to young, ambitious antiquarian scholar Edward Lawrence who eagerly agrees to help. As Dora uncovers the truth, she comes to understand that some doors are locked and some mysteries are buried for a reason, while others are closer to the surface than they appear.
