In 1979, Wisconsin native Tim McBride hopped into his Mustang and headed south. He was twenty-one, and his best friend had offered him a job working as a crab fisherman in Chokoloskee Island, a town of fewer than 500 people on Florida's Gulf Coast.

A CATCH ME IF YOU CAN TALE FOR TODAY. Bent is the story of John J. Boseak's phenomenal life of crime. Inked from head to toe, with an addiction to strippers and fast Cadillacs, Boseak was not your typical computer geek. He was, however, one of the most cunning scammers, counterfeiters, identity thieves and escape artists alive-and a major thorn in the side of the U.S. Secret Service as they fought a war on cybercrime. With a savant-like ability to circumvent banking security and stay one step ahead of law enforcement, Boseak made millions of dollars in the international cyber underworld, with the help of the Chinese and the Russians. Then, leaving nothing but a John Doe warrant and a cleaned-out bank account in his wake, he vanished. Boseak's stranger-than-fiction tale of ingenious scams and impossible escapes, of brazen run-ins with the law and secret desires to straighten out and settle down, makes Bent a true crime con game that will keep you guessing.
