This gripping narrative unfolds an international manhunt for a psychopathic con artist who exploited the aspirations of creators, stealing identities and millions. Scott C. Johnson combines years of in-depth reporting with powerful prose to recount the tale of a cunning imposter who wreaked financial and emotional havoc across the globe. With a remarkable talent for impersonation and manipulation, the Con Queen infiltrated the entertainment industry, leaving a trail of destruction. Johnson traces the origins of this mastermind and follows the relentless investigation led by a determined private detective that ultimately brought the Con Queen to the FBI's attention. Described by a victim as a “crazy, evil genius,” the Con Queen executed one of Hollywood's most elaborate scams, raising questions about motive and purpose. Johnson's exclusive access to victims and never-before-heard recordings of the Con Queen not only garnered global attention but also propelled law enforcement into action. As Johnson journeys from Los Angeles to the UK and Jakarta, he confronts one of the most disturbing criminal minds in recent history, discovering profound truths about himself and his own troubled family history along the way.
