In this Modern Wicked Fairy Tale, Bart Lamplighter and Eddie Vizard are two con men banded together to avoid riding the 1930s rails by grifting.

Elizabeth “Libby” Bancroft is a smart, sassy socialite who drinks and smokes and is an “old maid” at the ripe age of 32, at least by society’s standards.
