Description

The Grifters is a gripping novel about love, greed and corruption. Roy Dillon, a young and charismatic con man, finds himself at the centre of a complex web of relationships with his mother, Lily, who works for the mob, and his mistress, Moira Langtry.

When Roy suffers an injury that leaves him in need of care, he is brought home by Carol Roberg, a nurse who sees an opportunity to exploit his vulnerability. As their lives become increasingly intertwined, a dark game of cat and mouse ensues, with each player determined to get the upper hand.

This tense and unflinching novel explores the darker side of human nature, where love and greed are inextricably linked. With its vivid characters and gripping plot, The Grifters is a compelling read for fans of crime fiction.
