"""Mississippi’s state auditor Shad White names names in his fast-paced account of the plunder of $100 million in welfare funds by corrupt officials and their well-connected associates – including celebrity athletes. White also reveals a lack of cooperation and outright opposition to the investigation by prosecutors, legislators and other powerful figures that was almost as maddening as the theft itself.” --Curtis Wilkie, author of The Fall of the House of Zeus ""A lot of people talk about corruption and fraud--but very few people do anything about it. Shad White is one of those people who is taking action. And in this book he explains how he did it. A must read."" --Peter Schweizer, author of the #1 New York Times best seller Secret Empires “I first met Shad White when he was a Rhodes Scholar, and we sat in an ancient pub in Oxford, England and talked about our shared hopes for a better, more just Mississippi. I am not surprised he has dedicated himself to public service -- a chapter of which is contained between these covers."" --Wright Thompson, author of Pappyland"
