NEW DRAMA Vanishing Act From Thursday 3 August, ITVX

Australian financial adviser Melissa Caddick was dubbed 'the con artist of the century' after she swindled friends, family and rich clients out of millions to fund her lavish lifestyle in Sydney's eastern suburbs. Then she vanished following an early morning run...

Now the story of her deception and disappearance is dramatised in ITVX's Vanishing Act (available as a box set from 3 August), starring Wentworth Prison's Kate Atkinson as the high-rolling fraudster.
