What to expect
Brought to you by Penguin.
There's an old saying: 'a rising tide lifts all boats'.
It's normally couched in positive terms; that overall economic improvement will benefit everyone. In the case of hi-tech money laundering, however, it offers a dark vision of the future. The better these launderers become at their work, the more crime of all types will be enabled. It's time to understand where the water is rising, before it washes over us all.
Money laundering has been around for centuries. For as long as people have been stealing money, there's been an industry ready to wash it. But recent tech innovations have created vastly complex new systems for laundering that threaten to overwhelm authorities, destabilise economies and disrupt societies.
Ranging from the flamboyant luxury of Dubai hotels to quiet coastal Ireland, from the UK to Nigeria and from Indonesia to North Korea, Rinsed is a truly global relevatory investigation into the new army of innovative launderers ... and the consequences for all of us.

This is a gripping and surprising true-crime drama without – so far – a happy ending. Cracking down on modern money laundering has to be central to any counter-crime strategy

Geoff White brings the shady and obscure world of illicit finance alive in Rinsed, a gripping book that pits fiendishly clever crime bosses and their stomach-churning schemes, against ingenious detectives who painstakingly unravel a whole new frontier of crime. From the nephew of Pablo Escobar discovering decomposed cash in the walls of his mansion to the dark web entrepreneur who cements his conviction with a photo taken on his smart glasses, Rinsed is as twisty, colourful and terrifyingly eye-opening as the people White investigates. You’ll never look at wealth, technology and crime in the same way
author of The Poison Line, and host of award-winning podcast Bed of Lies -
