Blue Trust has all the ingredients of a gripping thriller -- except it's all true. In the late 1980s Bruce and Lynne Verchere had it all. He was a successful tax lawyer whose clients included Brian Mulroney, and bestselling novelist Arthur Hailey. She was a computer software entrepreneur whose innovative systems revolutionized office management throughout North America. When Lynne's company was sold Bruce could finally afford the extravagances he had long coveted: a plane, a yacht, a summer home in Maine, and a condo in Telluride. Through intricate manipulation, he was able to secrete his family's wealth beyond the reach of the taxman and even his wife. Then Bruce Verchere fell in love. The desperate affair and dangerous ultimatum that followed provide this true story with a chilling climax. Blue Trust is a complex tale of high drama brilliantly told by one of Canada's most admired investigative journalists.… (mehr)

Shocking reveal about corruption, extortion, fraud and tax evasion in Canada. Almost a thriller, certainly horrifying shenanigans: summary below from the Public library's overview ~

Bruce Verchere was a highly respected tax lawyer whose clients included Brian Mulroney, Canada's prime minister at the time; Arthur Hailey, one of the world's best-selling novelists; and the Swiss Bank Corporation, Switzerland's second-largest bank. Lynn Verechere was a computer software entrepreneur whose innovative systems, licensed by IBM, helped revolutionize the management of law offices throughout North America.

After years of the intricate manipulation that was his stock-in-trade, Bruce deployed the family's private trust, myriad bank accounts, and offshore companies to secrete their wealth beyond the reach of the taxman and even of his wife. ( )
