Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century America, this narrative follows seven-year-old Thomas Moran, who inadvertently begins a life of pickpocketing during the 1906 San Francisco earthquake. As he matures, Tommy traverses the country, encountering a vivid cast of characters, including gangsters and bootleggers, amid the challenges of Prohibition and the Great Depression. Central to his journey is Effie, his great love, who represents a chance for redemption. The story is a vibrant exploration of ambition and the pursuit of the American Dream.
