Argentina, 1976 to 2026. Before dawn in June 2016, a former secretary of public works was caught throwing bags holding nearly nine million dollars over a convent wall; a court later convicted him because he could not explain them. This book follows the money of a country that keeps its savings in dollars at home: through road contracts that ended in a former president's house arrest, a driver's notebooks now on trial, a Rosario gang that ordered shootings at judges from a prison cell, football's television rights, casino prizes on the Triple Frontier and eight tax amnesties. Covers José López and the bags at the convent, Lázaro Báez and Austral Construcciones, Cristina Fernández de Kirchner and the Santa Cruz road contracts, and Ariel Máximo Cantero and Los Monos.
