Fleeing an abusive father in Ireland, peasant-girl, May Sharpe chases her dream of a new glamorous life. Arriving penniless in 1919’s America, beautiful May is charmed by successful con-man, Eddie. With her new lover’s guidance, teenage May becomes the city’s
‘Queen of Crooks’.
Having fallen in love with May, a tenacious local
cop, Joe, is determined to save her from herself. In
the midst of her glitzy life, he urges May to make a
decision; a decision which would threaten, not only
her new-found fame and fortune, but, her young
life…
Inspired by a true story.
