The ultimate con game thriller from the internationally bestselling master of suspense, John Sandford When the cops of Longstreet, Mississippi see a black boy running away from them and clutching something in his hand, theres only one thought in their minds - bag-snatcher. So they shoot him in the back. Except, Darrell Clark isnt a thief, hes a computer-crazy fourteen-year-old, who was running home before his ice-cream melted. And now hes dead. When the predictable police cover-up begins, Darrells friend, Marvel Atkins, decides its time for the corrupt city government to go. Using Darrells computer, she contacts the only two con artists with the nerve to take on a whole city: Kidd, computer-hacker extraordinaire, and his partner and some-time lover, LuEllen. To pull this off, the sting has to be perfect. And it will be, because if Kidd knows one thing, its this: a corrupt city regime is about as stable as a house of cards.
