Grand Rising Kings and Queens, settle in as we light some nag champa and dive into this episode headfirst. Shawndra, Jaleesa, DH Renfroe, and Dr. Diamond strolled into the addictive, tension-packed world of Tiffany D. Jackson’s The Scammer. Join us as we unpack Jackson’s razor-sharp character work, twisty plot turns, and the unsettling gray areas between survival, manipulation, and truth.

We explore what makes this psychological thriller so irresistible: the unreliable narrators, the emotional stakes, the sharp social commentary, and the slow-burn suspense that keeps you wondering who’s conning whom. Whether you’ve already devoured the book or you’re curious about the hype, we break down what The Scammer says about identity, ambition, and the cost of reinvention.

If you love smart discussions, bold opinions, and books that leave you questioning everything, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
