Trama
Storia romanzata ma non troppo di Fred Demara, famoso imbroglione che sta bene nei panni di tutti tranne che nei suoi. Così si finge dottore, psichiatra in una prigione, frate trappista. Alla fine i suoi maneggi vengono scoperti, ma ha ancora un colpo d'ala: si traveste da poliziotto incaricato di ricercare lui, Demara.
Il vero Fred Demara si alzerà in piedi?
