Jess Barrett

Overview... an unseasoned con artist with big dreams. Jess is good enough to run a seduction and blackmail grift, but new enough to choose longtime con man Nicky Spurgeon as a mark. She’s young and hungry, though, so she turns this setback into an opportunity, convincing the much more experienced Nicky to teach her the ways of their craft.

Personality... ambitious and manipulative, but still a bit naïve. She knows she has the raw talent to make boatloads of cash in the seedy world of grifting, but to truly succeed, she has to focus on the details. That’s where Nicky comes in. But one lesson he teaches her is to never fall in love with a colleague. It’s easier said than done as working together draws them closer and closer.
