Conned, by Matthew Klein (£6.99, Orion).
KIP Largo spent years following in his father's footsteps - as a conman.
His first effort to go straight and set up a legitimate business landed him in prison.
Now he works in a laundry and is determined not to back to jail but his son is in trouble and he is offered a way of helping him with one big con.
He gathers a team around him and begins to work.
However, with a traitor in their midst and some very nasty people on his tail he will be fortunate to survive let alone pull it off.
This is a wonderful read with the plot interspersed with conman stories and from beginning, to end, you will be rooting for the flawed by loveable Kip.
