    Breaking the Story of How the Rich and Powerful Hide Their Money
    Cover of 'Panama Papers' by Bastian Obermayer

    An investigative narrative that follows how a massive leak of confidential offshore documents exposed the global network of shell companies, tax havens and financial secrecy used by politicians, billionaires, corporations and criminals; it traces the journalists and the international consortium who analyzed the trove, the technical and legal challenges they faced, and the political, legal and social fallout that reshaped debates about corruption, accountability and global finance.
