What a con artist ! This book shows how gullible we are to smooth talkers.
It is a fascinating tale of deception- glad he's in prison
Interesting submitted by karenkay on August 20, 2020, 12:01pm This was well written. I read it after reading William Kirn's Blood Will Out. This perspective was from someone who did not know Christian Karl Gerhartsreiter. Brought more information about the trial.
