When seasoned armed-robber Reg Ramsay makes parole, he discovers that the world has changed, and there aren’t any easy scores left. Ever the artful con, Reg hatches a scheme to knock over a craft show – a place with lots of money and zero security. But Reg’s plans for an inside job are derailed when his sham sculptures actually become a hit! Soon he’s making headlines, falling for a beautiful (and married) artist, Ashley, and appearing on a televised craft showdown, against opponents who’ll stop at nothing to knock him out of the competition – and back into prison.
