Episode #2 of A GRIFTER'S SONG is Out!
J.D. Rhoades wrote the second episode of A Grifter’s Song, a story set in the South called People Like Us.
What’s this one about?
Longtime lovers and con artists Sam and Rachel sign on to help Sam’s old mentor, a legendary grifter known as Aunt Sally, pull off a scam that leverages the racist sentiments, gimlet-eyed avarice, and sleazy lust of an odious white supremacist college professor. But the couple has dragged their past behind them, and the Philly mobsters they ripped off not so long ago have set a relentless hunter with a head full of demons on their trail, with a mandate to inflict as much pain as possible before he puts the couple in the ground.
As they put the grift together, Sam and Rachel uncover secrets and surprises about Aunt Sally, her enigmatic partner William, and themselves.
In addition to a great con, there are some social and political overtones, so if that kind of thing makes you think, you’re in luck.
After this, four more episodes remain for season one (plus a bonus episode for subscribers only!).
