National Bestseller
"Lee Mackenzie had brains, looks and talent. . . . So how could she
fall for a con man who very nearly destroyed her and who managed to
spread lies and misery across three continents? For every time
you've read a tale of the criminal's wife (Ruth Madoff, are you
listening?) and wondered 'How did she not know?', this is your
answer. . . . How he does it, how she got out of the trap and
how he managed to slip out of Canada and spread his cons elsewhere
make this true-crime book solid reading." —The Globe and
Mail
"This is the surprisingly well-documented story of [Mackenzie's]
courtship and marriage, a brief union that cleaned out her bank
account and brought the cops to her door. Jones comes across as a
troubled man with a pathological need to deceive and betray,
perhaps no one more than himself." —Toronto Star
"This is no ordinary true-crime book. . . . It's a riveting
memoir." —The Chronicle Herald
