Con Man

About the Book

Jack Stiles played the horses the way he played his women, and the women supported his habit. He often bragged that he'd never worked for more than a few weeks at a time.

After deserting the Marines and heading for Canada he took on the persona of a poet where he learned that women were more than willing to provide support to a talented, struggling artist. It was in Canada that he began his lifelong challenge to use and abuse as many women as possible in his attempt to live life to the fullest.

All of Jack's victims were smart, capable women. His final victim, Dr. Diedre Warren, was a successful psychologist. Jack stole her heart, her money, and nearly her life.
