Beating the U.S. Government to find Harvey proves to be only the first challenge in an epic struggle of wits and wills. While Albert and his ragtag team fight to bring the truth about Harvey's lies to light and save Clint Jencks from prison, government forces and powerful individuals, including J. Edgar Hoover and Joe McCarthy's sidekick Roy Cohn, maneuver to stop, intimidate, and manipulate them. All the while, there lurks the undeniable risk that when the going gets tough, Harvey, an admitted con man, will betray them all to save his own skin.
