Do you know of any interesting fiction accounts concerning forensic accounting?
There was a series of novels in the early 1990s that featured a female accountant. The one I remember is Questionable Behavior by Dayne Lamb. Amazon also lists Unquestioned Loyalty and A Question of Preference. I vaguely recall reading all three and definitely recall reading the first one which I enjoyed. The Big R: An Internal Auditing Action Adventure, which sounds really, really hokey, is pretty good. By John O’Shaughnessy, D. Larry Crumbly and Douglas E. Ziegenfuss (really — three guys to write one mystery). When I took accounting, we were required to read a book called Accosting the Golden Spire as a supplement to our accounting class. It did not feature really excellent forensic accounting or even excellent accounting. Throughout several semesters my instructor assigned more of these, but I won’t bore you with them unless you ask. There are a series of books by Marshall Jevon called the Henry Spearman Mysteries. They are actually not forensic accounting, but forensic economics.
