Summary

It's an all too familiar love story built on a web of lies that left a woman heartbroken, humiliated and robbed of her life savings. Only this time, it happened in Belgium. More details of Ghislaine's affair with Ric Blum will leave you gobsmacked, as will the memories of other listeners who are now coming forward to detail their encounters with the `man of many names.'
