Imprisoned in a remote Turkish POW camp during the First World War,
two British officers, Harry Jones and Cedric Hill, cunningly join
forces. To stave off boredom, Jones makes a handmade Ouija board
and holds fake seances for fellow prisoners. One day, an Ottoman
official approaches him with a query: could Jones contact the
spirits to find a vast treasure rumoured to be buried nearby?
Jones, a lawyer, and Hill, a magician, use the Ouija board - and
their keen understanding of the psychology of deception-to build a
trap for their captors that will lead them to freedom. The
Confidence Men is a nonfiction thriller featuring strategy, mortal
danger and even high farce - and chronicles a profound but unlikely
friendship.
