Review of 'Panama Papers' on Goodreads

3 stars

Written alongside the initial publication of the leak, both a narrative of learning how to investigate and report from a massive document trove, and of the pervasiveness of offshore secrecy in managing the wealth of heads of state, executives, criminals, and exploiters of all kinds. Since the leak is one law firm's files and emails about the secrets they'll keep (at the edge of legal and beyond), it is both fully revealing and yet only a slice of how the wealthy evade regulation of their behavior.
