Resumen del Editor

Now airing as the three-part documentary series The Other Mrs Jordan on ITVX.

From whirlwind romance to gaslighting campaign: this is truth far stranger than fiction.

When Mary met Will Jordan online, she was a single mother who’d given up trying to find Mr Right. And yet here he suddenly was: articulate and attractive, with a fascinating background. Soon they were in love, and when he proposed after a month it seemed recklessly romantic.

Caught up in a whirlwind, Mary accepted that Will’s work often took him away from home, out of contact. She was his rock, supporting him emotionally when a misunderstanding led to criminal charges, and even selling everything when blackmailers threatened to kidnap their children. Together, they took on the world.

And then one day the phone rang, and a woman introduced herself as ‘the other Mrs Jordan’…

In this raw account of deception on a grand scale, Mary Turner Thomson recounts what happened after she discovered every word he’d said, from the very first moment, was a lie. This is her painful, humiliating truth—but she tells it for one reason: she too was once a strong, independent woman who would have read all this and thought It could never happen to me…

Revised edition: Previously published as The Bigamist: the true story of a husband’s ultimate betrayal, this edition of The Bigamist includes editorial revisions.

Scam artist awareness

Anyone who goes online to find dates, love, etc. beware.
These losers start by stringing their victims step by step.
The world would be a better place without them . . . Except we wouldn’t know how vulnerable we are without them.

True story

Great storytelling by the victim . Very interesting details of her life story, and lessons taught to future victims

Eye opening, validating and beautifully written!

This story was incredibly shocking, juicy and honest! I am so glad I listened to the audio version because it makes the excellent writing really come alive.

Absolute proof there are monsters disguised as hum

I applaud Mary's courage in her willingness to share her journey with us! I hope her willingness to educate others about this helps her healing and gives others a touch stone to grab onto
You are in my prayers!!

Well Written, Fascinating, & Informative

Mary's story is both heart breaking and uplifting. How she has managed to bring such positivity to her life after all she has been through is simply amazing. I applaud her for her strength to overcome and her selflessness in sharing her story to help others.

Stranger than fiction

The author having been conned was devastating. Her book is a triumph over evil. People like Will truly are dangerous.

Wow!

This astounding true story is intricate. intriguing, and nearly unbelievable.... unless you yourself have known a psychopath and/or a malignant narcissist. But it is tie and bully on Mary Turner Thomson for telling her story. First copywrited in 2008, this story continues to unfold as Will Jorden was also convinced in the U.S. in 2013....

The 2nd part of the book, interestingly also sheds light on the duping of an entire nation by a psychopath in the guise of an American President... What happened to Mary also had happened to about 25% of the US population!

in addition, Ms Thompson's elegance in dealing with raising her children not to be victims is a lesson we all can learn from. I'll be taking her tips from Chapter 16 about how to "abuse proof" young children to my daily work in a law office where we deal with predators and sex abuse victims fairly regularly.

A path to deceit and unspeakable pain

The Bigamist by Mary Turner Thomson

📚Honest Thoughts 💭📚

This is my second approach to MTT’s life and struggle. My first encounter with her was by reading The Psychopath.

It is beyond words and I can’t really describe all the pain, sorrow and deception she went through. I found exquisite how she narrates her own story and for those who have an @audible membership I strongly recommend to listen as well as you read.

My heart breaks by understanding how easily manipulated and destroyed we end up by crossing paths with this personality type.
I am not saying men are all evil, I am saying some men can really destroy your life, shake your values to the core and scar your children for life.

If you haven’t come across Mary Turner Thomson yet, get a tissue box and go to a private place where you can insult as you will be accompanying a wonderful and caring woman on her journey to discover her own life.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

QOTD: How do you react to lies and deceitful behavior? How do you cope?

Great book

I enjoyed this book , lots of information I was always interested in this subject.

Brilliantly Written

This book is a cautionary take about the dangers of online dating as well as not knowing enough about someone you are dating. Background checks may be very helpful in this day and age. The bigamist was the most toxic person I have ever heard of. It is an almost unbelievable story. It is a riveting book.
