Author Event - Jim Phillips

In 2005 Jim Phillips started a marketing company with an old friend. Contracts started pouring in, but as his business partner's behaviour became increasingly strange, Jim wondered who he had built this business with. Then in 2013 Jim found himself in front of a judge at the Old Bailey, trapped in a living nightmare.

From impersonating a Chinese government minister to fabricating multi-million-pound contracts, Jim's friend had orchestrated an elaborate con with terrible consequences. Stranger than fiction, Jim gives his account of how he discovered the truth.
