Rezensionen

"Turner uses his professional experience as a Certified Fraud Examiner and financial investigator to present a clear historic and modern-day explanation of what constitutes money laundering and who engages in the global crime. The reader will learn what the act of money laundering is, why it takes place, the basic activities and operations, and geographic "hot spots" for this illegal enterprise. Given the detailed explanation of the subject matter, this book will have a long shelf life, making it a solid investment." (Security Management, September 2012)
