Julia Robson is a New Zealand born ex-police officer, now private investigator in Melbourne, who has spent the last eight years on the trail of a Kiwi conman, who scammed and exploited women around the world, and created the podcast Chasing Charlie. Charlie, who claimed to be a wealthy property developer spending six months of the year in France, turned out to be New Zealander Paul Bryan Gill, who had been declared bankrupt multiple times and left this country in 2009. The investigation took Julia Robson around the world, from Australia and New Zealand, to France, Portugal, Britain and the United States, as more women came forward who'd be conned by him.
