There Is No Ethan: How Three Women Caught America's Biggest Catfish
by Anna Akbari
In There Is No Ethan, sociologist Anna Akbari recounts how she and two other accomplished women spent months falling for the same brilliant, endlessly unavailable man online, then teamed up to unmask him. Part memoir, part investigation, it is a study of emotional catfishing where the con wanted devotion, not money, and the law had nothing to say about it.
