Description
BAILOUT, IS A PSYCHOLOGICAL true crime thriller that pits a narcissistic con man against an egotistical pathological liar. Marcus Schrenker—the money manager who attempted to fake his own death during the 2008 financial crisis—is about to be released from prison and he’s ready to talk. He’s ready to tell you the story no one has heard. Schrenker sits down with true crime writer, Matthew B. Cox and fellow inmate serving time for bank fraud. Schrenker lays out the details. The disgruntled clients that persecuted him for unanticipated market losses. The affair that ruined his marriage and the treachery of his scorned wife—the woman who framed him for securities fraud. Leaving him no choice but to make a bogus distress call and plunge from his multi-million dollar private aircraft in the dead of night. The $11.1 million in life insurance. The missing $1.5 million in gold. The fact is, Schrenker wants you to think he’s innocent. The problem is, Cox knows Schrenker’s a pathological liar and his story is a fabrication. As Cox subtly coaxes, cajoles, and yes, cons Schrenker into revealing his deceptions his stranger-than-fiction life of lies slowly unravels. This is the story Schrenker didn’t want you to know.
