        by Emmanuelle Rey

        Mauve, Tito and Diamond have been walking along the highway, under the scorching July sun, for the past three days. It was Mauve who decided everything, on a whim, when she realised that this time, her mom had really messed up. And, at fifteen, it was out of the question to be separated from her eight and two-year-old brothers to live with yet another rotten foster family. So the three siblings leave Montpellier and their chaotic life, closely tailed by the police. They leave to find Thierry and Martine, whose smiles and ratatouille chicken Mauve remembers fondly. They start walking straight ahead to Marseille and La Pointe Rouge, with the hope of a new life. Straight Ahead follows the singular path of Mauve and her two brothers, filled with life-altering adventures and realistic characters. Furthermore, in a series of flashbacks, Mauve tells us all about her mother—an eccentric woman who certainly doesn’t seem able to take care of her children, but who is full of love for them nonetheless. • The complexity of a mother-child relationship, when a mother’s love isn’t enough to make up for her shortcomings • The unique bond between siblings that will help them deal with life on the road • Interesting encounters and experiences — good and bad — that teach valuable life lessons

        Corporate Fraud Exposed

        A Comprehensive and Holistic Approach

        by H. Kent Baker, Lynnette Purda, Samir Saadi

        After each major corporate scandal, new suggestions for combatting fraud emerge from regulators and industry professionals. Despite changes to guidelines for firms’ corporate governance, augmented protection for whistle blowers, and enhanced cybersecurity measures, evidence documents an alarming increase in the prevalence and severity of corporate fraud. The rapidly changing laws aimed at curbing corporate fraud sometimes lag behind the changing sophistication of fraud schemes.    Corporate Fraud Exposed discusses the motivations and drivers of fraud including agency theory, executive compensation, and organizational culture. It examines fraud’s consequences for various firm stakeholders and its spillover effects to other corporations, the political environment, and financial market participants, including those who participate via crowdfunding platforms.     This book provides a fresh look at this intriguing but often complex subject. It skillfully blends the contributions of a global array of scholars and practitioners into a single review of some of the most important topics in this area. Given its broad scope, this practical and comprehensive title should be of interest to anyone curious about corporate fraud.
