When will the series “Harlots Season 4” come out?
Fans were sure that season 3 would not be among the latter, as the show’s popularity was only growing. Unfortunately, the continuation of the TV series “Harlots” will not be released. In June 2020, Hulu officially announced the closure of the project.
Plot
At 10, Margaret Wells’s mother gave her to a brothel. She did not appoint a large price for the girl, because she was quite satisfied with the yellow shoes, which at that time she really liked. At such a young age, Margaret vowed that if her daughters face the same fate, then she will try to do everything possible so that they can fully live the first years of her life.
Margaret’s eldest daughter, Charlotte, was able to establish herself as an expensive, experienced, charming courtesan, not ready to go to bed with every man. Having arranged a secret auction for her daughter, Margaret was able to sell her virginity dearly. True, judging by the behavior of Charlotte, the girl is absolutely not grateful to her mother for her fate.
The current chosen one of Charlotte requires complete domination of her. But the girl wants to attend social events and meet different people. Paying all the bills of Charlotte, who still loves to gamble, the chosen one gives her pineapples instead of pearls. At the same time, he calls the girl “pineapple of Great Britain”. Naturally, Charlotte does not want such a patron, and he soon leaves.
Lucy, the youngest daughter, was more accommodating. She often spent time with the girls from the brothel, but she did not love everyone. Lucy dreamed that someday her virginity would be sold as dearly as her sister, but her mother constantly delayed this moment. First, Lucy studied, and only then her mother began to think about selling it. Recently, delaying “that moment” has become much more difficult.
Margaret appeared influential enemies who are closely engaged in a similar business. Other brothels began to drag customers, courtesans, and Margaret’s attendants. Competitors were even able to set local authorities against her, which hit her budget hard. Then it was time to put Lucy’s virginity in secret bidding, especially since the girl was already ready.
But the enemies again began to plot intrigues for Margaret and her family. Will the girls, led by Margaret, be able to defend their remaining honor? Will Margaret manage to relocate her charges to a more presentable brothel?
