| Publisher Description: The world is full of spies and con artists. With today's high-tech world, spies, cons, scams, frauds and swindles are flourishing. One look at the internet and it is readily verified. It is interesting to note that the life of a spy and a con artist are very similar. Both live a risky and dangerous life. Both are after the money. Both do extensive planning in their play. Both understand the behavior of people. Both are like psychologists. Both are influential in talk and actions. Both are risk takers. Both are daring in life and work and are thrill seekers. Both may have some psychopath tendencies. Both have little concern for others. Both are liars. Both can role-play like actors/actresses depending upon the situation. In this book, the life of the spy and con artist is readily seen with adventure, excitement, domination, control and sex. Although the spy in this book is Russian, and the con artist is American, we must be alert to the fact that spies and con artists are in business, sports, theater, entertainment, politics, etc. They are everywhere. They may live next door to you, beside you at work, relatives or even somewhere in your family. Dr. Gerald A. Walford earned his Ph. D. from the University of Maryland.
