Marty Hench is a master of money laundering, cyber-knavery, and shell company chicanery. He is the most accomplished forensic accountant in Silicon Valley and is well-versed in the devious ways of Fortune 500s, divorcing oligarchs, and international drug cartels. He is also a veteran of the long guerrilla war between those who want to hide money and those who want to find it.

In 2006, Marty Hench is at the top of his game as a self-employed forensic accountant. He spends his downtime holidaying on Catalina Island, where scenic, imported bison wander the bluffs and frozen, reheated fast food burgers cost $25. During one vacation, Marty disrupts a seemingly innocuous scheme, and he has no idea that he has kicked off a chain of events that will overtake the next decade of his life.

Because he has made his most dangerous mistake yet, he has trespassed into the playgrounds of the ultra-wealthy and identified their latest target: Californias Department of Corrections, who manage the states prison system. The tycoons have hundreds of thousands of prisoners at their mercy and the potential of millions of pounds to make off them.

But now, Marty is about to ruin their fun. A seething rebuke of the privatized prison system, this novel delves deeply into the arcane and baroque financial chicanery involved in the 2008 financial crash. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of finance, crime, and power.
