Busted! Riveting
Stories Of Tax Evasion And Fraud By An IRS
Insider
Jupiter, FL, June 8, 2012 - Tax evasion
and fraud do not discriminate and can be perpetrated by anyone – from
middle-class Americans to high profile celebrities starting with Al Capone,
Willie Nelson, and continuing more recently with Wesley
Snipes.
Bruce Bronstein is making a name for himself as a master
storyteller in his four novels that tell riveting accounts of tax evasion and
fraud and what it takes to go after the perpetrators. His lengthy career with
the IRS, handling some of the country’s most complex and controversial cases,
provides the backdrop for Bronstein’s compelling stories. His novels, a perfect
blend of humor, crime and the inner workings of the IRS and our legal system,
make for a read not easy to put down.
Stan, a corrupt tax lawyer, subject to disciplinary
action for failing to meet the standard of conduct expected of tax
practitioners, is involved in the death of an IRS agent. The agent’s death,
which has been staged to look like an accident, is at the center of Bronstein’s
first book Nondisclosable. When IRS officials find circumstantial evidence in
the dead agent’s audit files that incriminate the lawyer, it’s rendered useless
because they can’t disclose the information. Although police lack the hard
evidence needed to solve the mystery, the IRS is prepared to extract revenge
against the lawyer – who soon finds himself embroiled in a variety of criminal
conspiracies. Forced to face legendary agent Louie Lipschitz, the lawyer fears
there is no escape in sight…
Full Disclosure, Bronstein’s second book, shows the
corrupt lawyer going to prison at the same time the department is prosecuting
another case that involves the largest individual tax cheat in history. Before
the case is concluded, it leads to yet another tax case that implicates a man
who was once the most powerful person in the U.S. The consequences of the
investigation take a deadly turn and potential witnesses suffer a horrible fate.
To ensure the prosecution is successful, law enforcement officials must take
extreme measures and make tough decisions that have them deal-making with a
notorious figure. Full Disclosure takes readers on a roller-coaster ride through
our criminal justice system, showing how the unpredictability of one case can
impact another seemingly unrelated case in an ironic twist of
fate.
Imagine a bribery conspiracy, fraud, abuse of power and
illicit sex – now imagine it’s taking place within the IRS! In Den of Thieves,
the third novel by Bronstein, a shocking discovery is made that undermines the
integrity of the IRS when its own employees, responsible for the administration
of the nation’s tax laws, are found to be manipulating the system in a plot so
ingenious only one intrepid IRS agent can solve the mystery. As Lipschitz, their
fearless agent, finds himself matching wits with a brilliant sociopath currently
behind bars, it’s not certain that even he can overcome all the challenges
placed in his path.
Due for release this summer, Reversal of Justice finds
Erica Whitman plotting revenge against the federal government due to her
imprisonment for her role in a conspiracy to defraud the IRS. As she schemes to
have her conviction overturned, Erica is also planning a diabolical strategy
that she believes will guarantee her instant wealth while helping her extract
revenge on federal prosecutors. While the Justice Department and IRS officials
once again deal with an ingenious and calculating criminal mastermind, more
colorful characters surface that challenge the authority of the IRS. Meanwhile,
the police are forced to deal with murder contracts placed on the head of Louie
Lipschitz, who has incurred the wrath of more than a few of these
characters.
Bruce Bronstein is a former IRS Tax Law Specialist who
also worked in the Appeals Division where he handled some of the largest and
most complex cases in the country. His 30 years of experience specializing in
civil fraud cases brings distinct authenticity to his novels and takes the
subject of tax controversy to new levels. Drawing five star reviews on
Amazon.com, his informative and witty novels explore how controversial tax
issues are handled by the various functions within the IRS and our legal
system.
Excerpts from reviews on
Amazon.com:
“The author has superbly constructed his story around a
subject matter that is both a mystery and anathema to most of us…He produces a
riveting story that is not only exciting and entertaining, but also provides a
primer on how the tax code, regulations, rules and procedures are enforced and
carried out; sometimes in a humorous manner, by those working within the
IRS…would definitely concur with those who have highly recommended this
book.”
“Brilliant! I thought the book was informative,
humorous, and entertaining…easy to read and I found it hard to put it down
waiting for the next twist in the story. I did not expect all that in a book
featuring an unethical tax attorney. I believe anyone would totally enjoy this
book as I did.”
“…best book I have read in quite a long time. As a tax
attorney, I found the entire book to be interesting and very realistic. The
characters are something else and at times I was laughing out loud. .. I
understand this is a first book and I can't wait to read the next
one.”
