Summary
In an effort to escape her murky past and build a better future, Olive, a nomadic European con artist, and her 10-year old American-born son, Bobby, find themselves living in Oklahoma. As her top priority, Olvie seeks to give Bobby the things she never had. but despite her efforts (or perhaps because of them) Bobby displays troubling behavior both at his school and in their conservative neighborhood. Things take a turn for the worse after Bobby's unfortunate "run-in" with the local and wealthy businessman Kent, and Olive's criminal past finally catches up with her, forcing her to make the toughest judgment of all.
