Пра гэту аўдыякнігу

Raised in a world of flimflams, come-ons, and con-jobs, Beano Bates has done so well he's earned a spot on the FBI's Ten Most Wanted List. But his lucky streak vanishes after a card game in which he scams a cool eighty grand from a notorious Mafia don— who retaliates by having Beano nearly beaten to death. For the first time in his legendary career, Beano wants more than a big score— he wants justice. Aided by a beautiful, no-nonsense female prosecutor and a legion of crafty cousins who are all accomplished grifters, Beano puts together the ultimate swindle— a well-planned sting of strategy, skill and deception. And in this game, winner takes all!
