Here is a stunning true story from the author of Up in the Air, Walter Kirn. For 15 years, the acclaimed journalist and novelist fell for the pedigreed charms of one Clark Rockefeller. Then in July 2008, authorities pursued “Rockefeller” for kidnapping his own daughter, and an elaborate lie very publicly unraveled. Clark’s real identity was revealed to be Christian Gerhartsreiter, a German imposter with a murderous past. What started as a story about American nobility became Blood Will Out, a deeply personal account of Kirn’s relationship with a psychopath masquerading as a gentleman.
