In TAXTOPIA a rogue accountant breaks ranks to share his journey from clueless naif to skilled tax consultant -and in doing so blows the lid on the murky world of making the tax burdens of the ultra-wealthy disappear.
In the topsy-turvy world of tax avoidance,you can get richer by buying a yacht,the world's biggest exporter of coffee is Switzerland,and billionaires like. Jeff Bezos,Donald Trump and the Duke of Westminster often pay less tax than you do.
Written with sharp wit and over-brimming with inside secrets,the anonymous author shows us that not only does the global tax system encourage dubious practice which favours the rich,but that it was specifically founded with that in mind. If you suspect that tax is a rigged game,a con,designed to fleece the little guy,you are about to find out just how shockingly true that really is.

MEDIA REVIEWS
'I would never ever have believed that a book about accountants could be either compelling or funny but Taxtopia manages both,it is a terrifying and brilliant book. Packed with true stories,many of them hilarious,the Rebel Accountant takes the reader deep inside the accountancy profession's often immoral banality. If you want to know how skewed the system is and how the rich always get richer and stay that way,while you don't,then read this book. Then get angry.'- Patrick Alley,Co-founder of Global Witness and author of Very Bad People
'Taxtopia's anonymous author has done the impossible - created a hilarious and deeply troubling expose about how the world's shady tax system is exploited and proves what we always suspected - that our tax system is rigged against us. Read it and weep.'- Geraint Anderson author of City Boy
