He was the scion of a wealthy German textiles empire, an
extravagantly successful day trader and a respected film producer.
But he was also the cruellest of fraudsters. Over a period of 12
years, Felix Vossen conned his best friends and closest colleagues
out of tens of millions of pounds. When he ran out of friends to
defraud he stole from his family. His Midas-like ability to spot
the rising stars of the stock markets disguised the fact that he
was a pathological liar whose investment empire was built on a
giant deceit. Empathy and trust were the tools he used to lure and
then betray his victims. Mr Charming charts the double life of
Vossen and captures the drama of the international manhunt as his
fraud collapses and he goes on the run. Why did Vossen's victims
put their money into something that was too good to be true? But
more importantly, how did his banks and the financial watchdogs
allow him to get away with it for so long?
