X-Ray Eyes: Slum-Born Queen Rises

A carriage accident gives an orphan X-ray vision to build a secret fortune.

After a runaway carriage strikes her in London's East End, destitute orphan Ella discovers she can see through solid objects. She immediately applies this ability in the district's chaotic flea markets, identifying buried valuables that experienced traders overlook. Each successful transaction dismantles the arrogant upstarts who once mocked her poverty while quietly accumulating a concealed fortune. Her rising influence draws the fascination of three elite noblemen as she establishes herself as the city's wealthiest woman in secret.
