 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
ONE OF TIME’S 100 BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR

Sex and the City meets Bad Blood and Catch Me if You Can in this riveting true crime memoir that tells the astonishing firsthand story of Anna Delvey—the fake heiress who conned New York’s elite—and the friend she betrayed.

When Rachel DeLoache Williams meets Anna Delvey, Anna claims to be a wealthy German heiress with boundless ambition and an extravagant lifestyle. She treats generously, covering lavish dinners, luxury hotels, high-end workouts, and nights out across Manhattan. Drawn into Anna’s orbit, Rachel is flattered by the friendship and dazzled by the access it provides.

The illusion shatters during a dream trip to Marrakech, when Anna’s credit cards suddenly stop working. Anna insists the problem is temporary and persuades Rachel to front the costs—first flights, then meals and shopping, and ultimately a private villa costing thousands per night. By the time they return to New York, Rachel has been charged more than $62,000, and Anna’s promises of repayment quickly unravel.

As Rachel pieces together the truth, she discovers Anna has left a trail of unpaid bills and deception throughout the city. Determined to reclaim her life and dignity, Rachel goes to the authorities and finds herself at the center of the investigation that brings down one of the most infamous con artists of the decade.

Fast-paced, immersive, and deeply personal, this memoir offers an insider’s account of fraud, privilege, and the seductive power of ambition—told by the woman who lived it. Trickbetrüger, Hoaxes & Betrugsfälle True Crime Wirtschaftskriminalität

If you have seen the Netflix series and want to find out something more about Anna you will not. There is surpriaingly little extra info. I am happy the author found a way to make something good oht if this. If you are interested in that particular character (Rachel) you will find out more, particularly about her upbringing. Its an easy audiobook to listen to and she read very well considering it's not her usual job.

Nothing new if you have seen 'inventing Anna'

I really liked to hear Rachel’s side of the story. How easy it is to fall into someone’s trap. We all think, this would never ever happen to us. It can sneak up on you. It was important to hear the details of how the story unfolded after having watched the show about Anna on Netflix. Things became more clear. Definitely a good read or listen.

An honest account

I rarely leave bad reviews, but this book, however, is not about Anna at all. It is simply a very long description of how the author tried to get the money for the Morocco trip back from Anna. There is no information about Anna‘s background or how she got started with her scams or any certain of that. The title of the book is misleading, hence the disappointment.

Not a book about Anna at all
