Corruptacy by Don VanLandingham Book Review


 

I received a gifted copy and am providing a review.

Jeffrey Allan is a forensic accountant who works for the EOUST, or the Executive Office of United States Trustees. In short, he is sent out to review the accounting systems of different individuals and/or businesses to be sure their recordkeeping is on the up-and-up, so to speak. In this quite entertaining story, you would never believe the trouble he finds himself in. Who knew forensic accounting could be so dangerous at times? He also finds himself reunited with one of his old friends, Eddie Cruise (lovingly known as “Fast Eddie”), who helps him solve a pretty big case, uncovering many of the bad guys and saving a situation that could have had deadly consequences. Jeffrey also relies heavily on his now wife, Rebecca, and his faith in God which is all tied together in the end.

While I in no way understand accounting on such a grand level, I did find this story to be quite entertaining. The one thing I really enjoyed is Mr. VanLandingham’s writing style. It is as if he is in the room telling you a story. The reader can certainly tell that this story came from his heart. If you are looking for a quick read and have often found yourself thinking how “boring” accounting is, give this book a shot. I think you’ll find that accounting isn’t that “boring” after all.
