From AudioFile:

Kip Largo, a fast-talking former high roller who did hard time when one of his shady deals went south, has been working at a dry cleaners in Silicon Valley and trying to make ends meet by selling vitamins over the Internet at night. When his estranged ne'er-do-well son gets in trouble with the Russian mob, the aging Kip must get back into the game and pull the con of his life. Narrator Norman Dietz injects world-weariness, interspersed with just the right amount of smarminess, into the character of an aging father who is trying to redeem a life of regret and bad luck. This engaging story will keep listeners hooked and hustled as the plot unfolds in unexpected ways. M.H.N. © AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
