A bogus spiritualist and an amateur actor hope to con a wealthy woman out of $10,000 by locating her sole heir ? a nephew given up for adoption under shady circumstances ? but find they are in deep water as the nephew turns out to be a kidnapper who?d rather not be found
This one is intriguing. But it doesn’t quite highlight the stakes enough. The nephew doesn’t want to be found right? So is he himself a much harder core criminal, meaning the fake spiritualist and the actor have bitten off more than they can chew and now are faced with life threatening retaliation?Read more

So is he himself a much harder core criminal, meaning the fake spiritualist and the actor have bitten off more than they can chew and now are faced with life threatening retaliation? Or perhaps the nephew is even more of a cunning criminal than they are, and he outwits them at their own game. Maybe the nephew is an undercover cop and they blow his cover.

If the character arc you want to show includes the protagonist becoming more self motivated, grounded, etc, then we would need to understand better the stakes of her failure to take this action. Like, if she doesn’t tell this lie, she will be married off in an arranged marriage, and lose her one chance at pursuing her life dream of being an artist. Or you could make it more interesting perhaps by making the aunt be “in” on her scheme. The aunt may be a mentor figure who herself has missed out on her dreams in life, perhaps the only person who believes in the protagonist and demonstrates unconditional love. The aunt can achieve joy in life, despite her own life regrets, by helping the protagonist and covering for her with her overprotective family.
