In 2000, businessman Harry Gordon, feeling under extreme financial and personal pressure, faked his own death. When his empty dinghy was found floating in a river on the north coast of New South Wales, Australia, an extraordinary chain of events was set in place. What followed was a roller-coaster ride that lasted more than five years across five different countries before he was finally arrested in Sydney in 2005 and spent 15 months in prison.How I Faked My Own Death and Did Not Get Away With It is Harry Gordon’s story in his own words: his thoughts and plans, his dealings with the law, his life lived under another identity, his deception of family and friends, and his flight to Germany, Spain, England and then New Zealand, where he remarried. Marriage led Harry to the realisation that he could no longer live on the run, and in order to move forward with his life he would have to face the consequences of his actions.Harry Gordon’s astonishing story is an insight into the panic and deception that sets in when the decisions we make lead us on a path against the law.
