THE LAUNDREYMEN Inside the World's Third Largest Business (SIGNED)

Hardback. SIGNED. The author, a financial crime expert, exposes the vast, shadowy world of global money laundering. He reveals how hundreds of billions in illicit funds — mostly from drugs — flow through legitimate channels via bankers, lawyers, and governments. Highlighting cases like the BCCI scandal and the Vatican Bank, he argues it’s the world’s third-largest industry, dwarfing food spending. From cocaine-tainted U.S. bills to Third World economies propped by dirty cash, the book blends gripping stories with stark statistics, indicting complicit systems. It’s a seminal, eye-opening dive into crime’s financial underbelly. With Epilogue, Bibliog. and Index. 340pp. lge. 8vo. h/back. PRESENTATION COPY INSCRIBED AND SIGNED BY JEFFREY ROBINSON.
