Accounting and Murder Around the World

'The plots are inventive, and as someone always trying to guess how a story will unfold, I’m always left guessing until the end.'-Regina Broscius, Public Relations Specialist and Mystery Fan'Bernie Madoffs better watch their backs...'-Richard Wall, Book Reviewer'Accounting and Murder Around the World is an exciting sequel to Steve McMillan’s Whodunit Award-winning mystery, Accounting Can Be Murder. A collection of three novellas, it proves he’s not just a one-time wonder when it comes to gripping storytelling.'Nobody expects the accountant. Ben and Sharon pack a calculator and a badge for Malta, Belgium, and Finland - three vacations that keep turning into murder investigations.Most people go to Malta for the beaches. Ben Stone, forensic-accounting professor, goes for a conference - and somehow leaves with a dead businessman, a mysterious Russian, and a partner, Philadelphia detective Sharon Levin, who cannot resist investigating on a trip that was supposed to be a vacation. So begins a three-country run of crimes the pair keep accidentally solving. In Belgium it’s chocolate, diamonds, and a set of books that are just a little too tidy. In Finland it’s saunas, spotless institutions, and fraud that apparently doesn’t speak Finnish either. Armed with a calculator, a badge, and their CIA friend Debbi on speed-dial, this odd-couple duo proves the oldest rule in crime: cook the books long enough, and eventually somebody dies over the leftovers. Wry, brainy, and hardboiled to the last decimal.
