Three robbers are killed in an unsuccessful raid. Three women became widows overnight. Dolly Rawlins, Linda Pirelli, and Shirley Miller, each in their own way, take the grief that has befallen them. When Dolly opens her husband Harry’s safe deposit box, she finds a gun, money and detailed plans of robberies there. She understands that she has three options: 1) forget about what she found; 2) hand over her husband’s notebooks to the police or to bandits who want to take over the criminal business and threaten her and other widows; 3) commit the robbery themselves, planned by their husbands. Dolly decides to continue the work of her beloved husband, together with Linda and Shirley, to deal with the police and former competitors of their husbands. Harry’s plan required four people, and only three died. Who was the fourth and where is he now? Will widows be able to rob and escape the police? Will they be able to find and punish those responsible?
