In 2013 Mischele was a thirty-five-year-old labour and delivery nurse working in a maternity hospital in New Jersey, passionate about her job and mostly working nights which meant she had her days available for her two children. The first thing that struck me about her – seeing the photographs she sent me – was how stunningly beautiful she was, with long blonde hair and gorgeous big blue eyes.

In January 2013, Mischele was separated from her husband and in the process of divorce. She, like many others, decided to go online to look for love. She was not interested in ‘playing the field’ or shopping around. She just wanted to find a companion and partner for life.

She met forty-eight-year-old William Jordan, posing as forty-year-old Liam Allen, a British intelligence officer working for the FCO. Initially he told her that his name was Guillaume but that Americans found the name particularly hard to cope with, so he went by ‘Liam’. He had recently returned to the USA and owned a medical records company. The conversation flowed easily and smoothly. He seemed to be everything that Mischele had ever wanted and they just ‘clicked’. Liam came across as charming, intelligent, well read as well as being musically inclined.

As he got to know her, he spun her a story about how he was born in New Jersey but was sent to England as a toddler because his mother was abusive. His father had intervened after his mother had nearly put him in a scalding hot bath and he decided that Liam could no longer live with his parents, for his own safety. His father sent him to live with relatives who were Oxford University professors. Mischele felt very sorry for this poor man who had had such a sad life. Although his distant Oxford relatives provided for him, they were not particularly caring – they had other older children and treated him rather like a charity case.

Liam spoke with a British accent and explained that he had attended Oxford University before joining the British military and flying helicopters. He then admitted that because he was cunning and smart he had been offered a job with the UK Ministry of Defence doing a job where he was to go ahead of missions to befriend locals and persuade them to act as scouts for targeting high-ranking terrorists post 9/11. The scouts would then tell his team when the coast was clear and he would personally pilot the drones remotely in order to attack their intended target.

After Liam had left the military, he had taken his pension and gone to Mexico where he had fallen in love with a single mother who had a Down’s Syndrome daughter. They were planning to get married and he wanted to take guardianship of the daughter, but then Hurricane Alex hit. After an arduous journey to the British Embassy in Mexico City he was flown back to New Jersey where his birth parents resided. Finally he was reconnecting with the parents who had sent him away.
