> He claimed that he had two Ph.D.s: his Highsmith-related dissertation, from Oxford, and one from the psychology department of an American university, for research into Munchausen syndrome. There’s no evidence that Mallory ever undertook such research.

Well, there was your first hint right there. Fascinating story, vaguely reminds me of Andrew Cunanan.

He might be smug and self-assured but there's no denying that he has a sense of humour. I expect that this will aid his "rehabilitation" and reinsertion into the literary world. He'll probably end up selling the rights to his life story for more than he made on his book.
