About the Author
Having lived the extraordinary experience of being a taxpayer advocate during the turbulent 1990s, I always knew there was a story to tell. I researched facts, created compelling characters, and developed engaging plot twists to intertwine with significant tax reform highlights.
One of the great joys of writing is creating fictitious characters to enhance a dramatic story based on true events. In writing Taming the Beast, Golden Secrets, and Unleashing the Beast, I drew from personal and anecdotal experiences to formulate authentic personalities and storylines.
What makes the Chronicles of TAXMAN Jordan Duncan series unique is the subject matter and the development of Jordan’s love/hate relationship with the dreaded IRS! He struggles and must persevere to skillfully manipulate a system designed to threaten and control the underdog, the American taxpayer!
I invite you to join me in the fascinating stories of adventure and the maturing evolution of taxman Jordan Duncan. His enlightening journey traverses both sides of the unpredictable and often dangerous world of taxation, which stretches the fine line between legalization and fraud. As Benjamin Franklin famously stated, “Nothing in this world can be said to be certain except death and taxes.”
Happy Reading,
John Ginos
