Charade

Do you think good people are capable of bad things? Vic and Benjamin think so...

Victor Langley loves his daughter with all his heart, so when she's diagnosed with cancer, he knows he has to do everything to save her. He makes a deal with a rogue doctor by the name of Dr Chris Evans, who demands two million dollars in order to move Lily's name up the list of cancer patients so she can get the life-saving surgery she needs. Vic knows just how to make the money - by going back to his conman ways.

Then comes Benji, a seventeen year old runaway who's been surviving by living in other people's houses while they're on holiday. Benji knows what Vic's up to and blackmails him into teaching him how to become a con artist. But with Benji causing mayhem at home and their scams landing them in endless trouble, can they get the money and save Lily, before it's too late?
