About
If you enjoy fast-moving con stories with shifting alliances, clever setups, and a few laughs, this should hit the spot; Not for you if you dislike implausible twists or want realism over gamesmanship like Ocean's Eleven.
Pros: twisty con-game fun; brisk pace; unexpectedly funny moments | Cons: hard-to-buy turns; familiar genre beats; lead may not click
