SMFS list member Curtis Ippolito’s novella, Stealing Paradise was released earlier this month by Down & Out Books. This is the thirty-fourth installment of the A Grifter’s Song series. The read is available in eBook format from Amazon.
Publisher Description:
Sam and Rachel are taking a much-deserved break in
America’s Finest City—San Diego. Staying at the legendary Hotel Del on Coronado
Island, the couple hack their way into a free suite, swanky spas, and numerous
other luxuries. But that’s where the scams cease.
Rachel has enacted a mantra of “observe but don’t
act,” intended to allow Sam time to decompress and recover—and it’s working.
But true to their nature, when a con too easy to pass up comes along, all other
intentions are quickly discarded. Once a young businessman brags about
increasing his net worth over the pandemic through the windfall of small
business loans from the Federal government he had forgiven, the couple hatch a
simple con to lighten his load some.
After some cozying up and planning an “investor
presentation,” they seem poised to net an easy payday of six figures. The only
hitch? A disgruntled former employer also has Sam and Rachel’s mark in his
sights, unknown to them. Will his unwelcome presence not only kill the con but
spell doom for them all?
