Review “Riveting reading. . . . [Henriques] probably knows more than anyone outside the FBI and the Securities and Exchange Commission about the mechanics of the fraud. As a consequence, in The Wizard of Lies she is able to add significant detail to the story. . . . In the end the story holds us not because of the engrossing details of the scam, but because of the human dimension.” Liaquat Ahamed, The New York Times Book Review“Henriques offers an impressive, meticulously reported postmortem not only of the Ponzi scheme but also of Madoffs entire career. . . . The Wizard of Lies is the definitive book on what Madoff did and how he did it.” Bloomberg Businessweek“In The Wizard of Lies, Diana Henriques, who covered the Madoff scandal for the New York Times, offers a riveting history of Mr Madoffs shady dealings and the shattering consequences of his theft. . . . She offers a raw and surprisingly moving portrait about the toll that Mr Madoffs deceit took on his family.” The Economist“Entertaining… Cogent and well researched, The Wizard of Lies is an engaging narrative… [The book] reveals many moments where Madoff might have been stopped. But his investors were too trusting or too greedy to ask the right questions and US regulators were too cowed and too disorganised.” Financial Times
