Suspense
Kip Largo was once the world's greatest con man. Then he
got busted. And spent eight years in jail. And lost his
family. And lost everything except his crummy apartment and
sense of humor. Now he spends his days working at a third-
rate dry cleaner and maintaining a fourth-rate website. But
hey, it's an honest living. Then he meets Lauren Napier, beautiful wife of billionaire
Ed Napier. Lauren's got a problem: She wants to leave Ed,
but she won't get squat in a divorce. She proposes that Kip
steal the money, and she offers to pay him handsomely for
his services. Kip's many things, but dumb isn't one of
them. He knows that when a beautiful woman wants something
from you, the only thing you're gonna get in return is
trouble. So he makes the smart choice and walks away. But
then things get complicated. Kip comes home one day to find his twenty-something son,
whom he hasn't seen in years, on his couch. Guess what? His
son owes money to the Russian mob. Kip can't say he saw
that coming. And his son is short - well, the whole amount.
Kip would like to help, but his monthly gross from the
website generally tops out at twelve bucks. Suddenly
Lauren's proposal isn't looking half bad. This is Kip's chance to start over, to save his son, to
afford a brand-new life. Kip knows that in any heist things
never go as planned, and if you don't improvise you'll be
caught faster than a one-legged bank robber. But Kip
doesn't know who's conning whom, and if he doesn't figure
it out, his life could be the ultimate failed con.
