Please note: I did not complete this book but I am thoroughly finished with it.
The Accountant's Story is bad. Not simply bad writing--Escobar is not a writer after all. It is literary malpractice. David Fisher's bibliography indicates talent that is nowhere to be found in this sloth-smudged cash grab. If this had been the 1st true-crime/crime bio I read, I probably wouldn't have read another book in the genre.

There's spin and then there's historical revision. Literal quotes, "They say Pablo made all his advancements based on brutality and threats but that is not true. He paid his people and everything he did benefits the people." Then, in the same chapter, "They say Pablo killed hundreds of people. I do not know about that or much about how he ran his business then." FROM THE TITULAR ACCOUNTANT.
