This shocking expose goes behind the headlines to uncover the true story of Clark Rockefeller, wealthy scion of a great American family who kidnapped his own daughter and vanished. The police and FBI were baffled. Tips poured in, but every lead was a dead end

… because ‘Clark Rockefeller’ did not exist.
In a gripping work of investigative journalism, Mark Seal reveals how German native Christian Gerhartsreiter came to the United States, where he stepped in and out of identities for decades, eventually posing as a Rockefeller for twelve years, married to a wealthy woman who had no idea who he really was. Fast-paced, hypnotic, and now updated with more stunning details, The Man in the Rockefeller Suit chillingly reveals the audacity and cunning of a shape-shifting con man.

‘Forget fiction. Pop this jaw-dropper in your beach bag.’
