Synopsis

Sixteen-year-old peasant girl, May Sharpe, steals from her abusive father, and flees Ireland, to chase her dream of a new life in America. Arriving penniless and friendless in 1919's America, May has to choose between honest poverty, or crime. Beautiful May is charmed by successful con-man, 'Society' Eddie. With her new lover's guidance, teenage May soon becomes the city's 'Queen of Crooks'.

But Joe, a stubborn local cop, has fallen for the spirited May. He is determined to save her from herself, and having to spend her life in prison. In the midst of her glitzy life, he confronts May to make a decision; a decision which would threaten, not only her new-found fame and fortune, but her young life...
