The Longest Con: A Family of Grifters Tale

Aphrodite Station, circling Venus, crosses behind the Sun every 584 days. Only then could the longest of con jobs be executed. In 2144, a young group of buncos who call themselves 'Coffey's Conners' are out to show their con-artist parents that they are mature enough to form their own crew. But the game the parents have in mind, 'The Wire', has not been pulled off in at least a century. With Aphrodite Station on the far side of the Sun, Coffey’s Conners are beyond help, beyond hope if things go wrong. If they get caught, the consequences are no further than the nearest airlock.
