The engrossing novel
tells the tale of Frank W. Abagnale,(alias Frank Williams, Robert Conrad,
Frank Adams, and Robert Monjo), one of the most daring con men, forgers,
imposters, and escape artists in history. In his brief but notorious
criminal career, Abagnale donned a pilot's uniform and copiloted a Pan
Am jet, masqueraded as the supervising resident of a hospital, practiced
law without a license, passed himself off as a college sociology professor,
and cashed over $2.5 million in forged checks, all before he was twenty-one.
Known by the police of twenty-six foreign countries and all fifty states
as "The Skywayman," Abagnale lived a sumptuous life on the
lam-until the law caught up with him. Now recognized as the nation's
leading authority on financial foul play, Abagnale is a charming rogue
whose hilarious, stranger-than-fiction international escapades, and
ingenious escapes-including one from an airplane-make Catch Me If
You Can an irresistible tale of deceit. |
