Good Audible Book

Forensic accounting is a fascinating subject, almost like a mystery novel. Can't put it down. Subject seems to be well-covered and authors provide great detail. Too bad there are so many examples and case studies.

Very Concise

This author's writing style is very open, accessible, and often humorous. I recently had the opportunity to spend the day in class with this author and cannot tell you how impressed I was with his level of detail and passion for this subject.

Helpful Book

The book is ok. It's a bit dry and some parts it looks like that they just try to summarize things instead of trying to teach fundamental thinking.

Highly Recommended

He even has a web link so you can practice what he is showing you with excel sheets. If you can get it used, great, if not, and this interests you, it might be worth spending the money for new. He also has another book out which also looks interesting.
