As featured on 60 Minutes, Dateline, Inside Edition, and 48 Hours,
the shocking true story of banker Edmond Safra's death and the man
wrongfully convicted and imprisoned for the crime. When billionaire
banker Edmond Safra died in the ashes of Monaco's La Belle Epoque
building on December 3, 1999, the event made international
headlines-for many reasons. One, of course, was the sheer wealth of
the Lebanese mogul and his formidable presence in the international
banking world. But the more seductive reason for the worldwide
attention was the strange and intriguing way Safra died-ensconced
within the armored walls of his vigilantly secured residence in the
"safest city in the world." At 4:45 in the morning, a firestorm
gutted Safra's opulent Monte Carlo penthouse, trapping-and
killing-Safra and one of his nurses, Vivian Torrente. When the fire
was ruled arson, a fast finger was pointed at the only other nurse
present: former Green Beret Ted Maher. The true, bizarre
circumstances that led to Safra's death and to the subsequent
imprisonment of Ted Maher are contained within the pages of Framed
in Monte Carlo: How I Was Wrongfully Convicted for a Billionaire's
Fiery Death. The story features a play-by-play of that deadly
night, as well as Ted's sham of a trial that put him behind bars
for seven years and eight months. Brutal betrayals, harrowing
kidnappings, prison breaks straight out of The Great Escape, and
more pepper the pages of Framed in Monte Carlo. Ted was freed when
the judge from his trial came forward with a stunning revelation.
But his life was never the same. And since his return to American
soil, he's continued to unearth more and more disturbing details
about his ordeal. Armed with fresh facts, a greater understanding
of the players, and a wider lens of perspective, Ted now reveals
all, including his never-before-released findings that seek to
answer the lingering big question: Who did kill Edmond Safra? The
powerful famous names legitimately put forth by the author will
shock you.
