"You don't have to add two and two to get the answer: Accounting Can Be Murder is an entertaining mystery by a Whodunit Award winner." - Edward Squires, Not Quite a Novella

Meet Ben Stone: accounting professor by day, reluctant sleuth whenever his homicide-detective girlfriend needs a man who can read between the ledger lines - and dodge a mob bribe.

Ben Stone teaches accounting at Temple and would much rather be grading than dodging bullets. But when an attorney at a big-time Philadelphia law firm turns up murdered, his girlfriend - homicide detective Sharon Levin - hands him a puzzle only a forensic accountant can crack: a web of overpriced brownstones, shell companies, and one real-estate speculator who never seems to pick a loser. The deeper Ben digs, the less the numbers add up, and the more attention he draws from people who settle audits with a cash bribe and a .45. With an ex-cop investigator and a great deal of Philly nerve, Stone learns the oldest rule in the book: follow the money, and it will lead somewhere it would rather you didn't go. Wry, brainy, and hardboiled to the last decimal.
