Summary
We have a real treat for you this time as we speak to financial crime expert Anja Shortland. After books on art theft and kidnapping, Anja has now turned her attention to ransomware, with her latest title We Know You Can Pay a Million – and offers fascinating glimpses into the business practices of the international criminals involved. Fraser Allen and Leila Johnston also hear from Future Asset's Jemma McLean about further celebrations of the 250th anniversary of Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations, while David Clarke bids a fond farewell to our brilliant Librarian Helen Williams. www.libraryofmistakes.com
