Death, Taxes, and Turduckens: Unraveling History’s Biggest Tax Heist and the Broken System That Enabled It
Overview
Amazon #1 Bestseller in White Collar Crime
"A terrific example of thrilling narrative nonfiction." — Kirkus Reviews
This is the inside story of the largest tax-evasion case in U.S. history, told through exclusive interviews with the agents and prosecutors who built the case. It unfolds like a spy thriller: encrypted messages, undercover stings, a lawyer’s suicide on the eve of trial, a billionaire’s brazen dementia defense, and a mysterious death that left billions in limbo.
Behind the drama lies a deeper crisis. Tax evasion siphons $447 billion annually from U.S. coffers, enough to feed every American household for six months. The ultra-wealthy hide over $1 trillion offshore. This book reveals how they do it, and what it would take to stop them.
