Description

Harry Gordon was a businessman under extreme pressure who decided to faked his own death. When his empty dinghy was found floating in a river on the North Coast of New South Wales an extraordinary chain of events were set in place. His family assumed he had drowned and Harry went on to create a new life. What could go wrong ? What followed was a roller-coaster ride that lasted for four years. Across different countries and many highs and lows he continued living a fake life before he was finally arrested and spent 15 months in prison. This biography is his story in his own words: his thoughts and plans, his dealings with the law, his life lived under another identity, his deception of family and friends and his flight to Spain, England and then New Zealand, where he remarried. Funny, entertaining and an interesting tale of a decision and it s consequences.
