Double Trouble; or, Every Hero His Own Villain

Garrett Hammond is not your typical thief. He's a professional looking to retire from this way of life. He figures this will be his last job. However, his partner, named Marcel, isn't willing to call it quits just yet, and the new mark has attracted another possible con artist. The new con is a young girl by the name of Julia. Garrett doesn't know it yet, but she's not just another con moving in on his mark. She's also his daughter from a previous relationship, which took place over nine years ago. He eventually finds out Julia's real identity and the trouble her and her mother are in concerning the debt the two owe to the mafia. Garrett also has some trouble of his own, because one of Vegas's finest Detective Gannon is hoping Garrett will make just one mistake so he can arrest him and see to it that he never works in Las Vegas again. Garrett gradually begins to want to start a new life, this time being a good parent to a daughter he never knew he had. This change in him will have significant consequences. He will have to decide if he wants to finish this last job and have Julia remember that about him--or be a positive role model, one that will teach her that stealing is wrong.
