From CBC's Uncover.

A body is pulled from the ocean, and a race against time to capture one of the world's most wanted criminals begins.

This is the story of a con man who couldn't stop lying. A tale of murder, stolen identities, fine art, a diaper stuffed with gold bars, and a crime solved by a Rolex watch. From rural Canada to coastal England, he lied and deceived at every turn.

    From 7am til 7:30 I consumed it beginning to end in one day, in-between work, gym, car, dinner. Love it! What a story! So well told.

  • Sam Mullins for the win!

    This podcast stood out because Sam Mullins is an excellent storyteller and host….manages to expertly blend drama with a dash of comedy all while sounding like an actual person (and not an overly polished podcast host). Heard him first on his other podcast “Wild Boys” which led me to this one. Both are stellar!
