Imagine being hired for a job for which you move to Puerto Vallarta, live and work in a mansion on the beach that would rival all the houses in Bel Air put together, fly around the world on a Lear jet, and enjoy a great salary.

Would you take the job?

As most of us are saying ‘yes, sign me up immediately,’ there is one more thing you need to know. You have to keep the job an absolute secret…from everyone.

Still want it?

Most of us would be unpacking our suitcase right now, but Roger Harrison did just the opposite and accepted the position. Harrison is the author of “The Wanted and the Unwanted,” a true-life account of his days working and playing hard with the infamous Tri-West Investment Club in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, where his lucrative, secretive yet illegal job was located. Now, for the first time, he’s revealing what really went on that shut Tri-West down, put some of his fellow employees in prison, and caused tens of thousands of people worldwide to lose at least 60 million dollars.

Harrison can discuss:

- The history behind Tri-West Investment Club and its scam
- The anatomy of a pyramid, or “ponzi” scam - how it worked, why it worked and how the leaders pulled it off... for awhile
-His role in the company
- Why he never knew what Tri-West was really doing
- Criminal cases, some still ongoing, against Tri-West leaders
- How this investment fraud has affected thousands of people worldwide
- His wild days in Mexico … and what it was like when it all came crashing down

Harrison ‘names names’ and isn’t afraid to tell exactly how it was.

Harrison was born in Edmonton, Alberta. He attended school in Australia before moving back to Canada. He has won awards for his writing since he was ten years old. He has written and/or edited magazine and newspaper articles, tech manuals and poetry, and has a column in an Alberta newspaper. Harrison worked a number of white-collar jobs in sales, marketing and consulting before accepting his position with Tri-West Investment Club and moving to Mexico. After the company was prosecuted, he turned away from white-collar jobs and is currently working on a service rig. The Wanted and the Unwanted is his first book. He currently lives in rural Alberta, Canada.

The book is available for purchase at www.wantedunwanted.com and major online bookselling sites.
