About
Makoto Edamura thinks he's Japan's greatest swindler until he tries to pickpocket Laurent Thierry, a suave French con man who turns the tables in seconds. Pulled into Laurent's international crew, Makoto travels from Los Angeles to Singapore to the French Riviera, targeting drug lords, crooked executives, and mob bosses in long, layered schemes where the mark is never quite who you think — and neither is the con. Beneath the glamour and the twists, it's a story about a man trying to figure out whether he's a genuine crook or just pretending, and what honesty is even worth in a world built on lies.
