New Release
Cover-Up is a first-person account of the aftermath of a Ponzi scheme as told through the eyes of a securities regulator, Mark Connolly. The story is told as he experienced it. The book is not meant to be a definitive history of this particular fraud; rather, it is to inform the reader about how it feels to be in the middle of a political storm, with uncertain consequences.
The Ponzi scheme is called Financial Resources Mortgage, Inc. (FRM), and while it took place largely in the state of New Hampshire, it could have occurred just about anywhere. The story is not meant to describe how or why the principal architect of the fraud went about constructing or covering-up his web of deceit, rather it is about how and why the government did not uncover the fraud and once it was unveiled, how a cover-up ensued, leading the author to eventually resign his position as director of securities regulation for the state so as to shed light on what really was occurring.
All proceeds from the book after expenses will be donated to investor education.
Praise
| “Cover-Up is a gripping read from cover to cover! Mark Connolly stood up for victims while others didn’t. His book exposes the startling lack of government accountability in this nation—meanwhile we taxpayers are left paying the bill while shiftless government regulators are allowed to keep their jobs.” |
