Meet Addie Pray - an eleven year old orphan of monumental shrewdness and one of the world's youngest con artists. Addie and "Long Boy", who may or may not be her daddy, travel the back roads of the South in the darkest days of the Depression "doing business" - or rather giving the business to the right number of fools they meet along the way. What a team of gentle sharpsters - they can slip a waitress a five dollar bill and come back with fifty bucks in change!
