In 2019, a London teenager, Zac Brettler, fell to his death from a luxury apartment building on the banks of the Thames.

On a desperate quest to understand how their son had died, his grieving parents made a shocking discovery: Zac had been living a fantasy life, posing as the son of a wealthy Russian oligarch.

Patrick Radden Keefe follows Zac’s parents on a dark and gripping journey to uncover the truth behind that tragic night — and how a teenager’s make-believe life led him into London’s hidden and dangerous underworld.
