Review:

Ellen and Joe Martin are a simple couple.

They aren’t involved in shady business deals or extramarital affairs or corrupt legal systems or murder plots. They don’t believe the world owes them anything. They just want to live their lives together in peace. So, when Joe is killed (along with 20 other people) in a boating accident, Ellen doesn’t really care about the financial settlement. After all, Joe took really good care of her with his life insurance policy.

No, what really gets under Ellen’s skin is when she learns that the boating company can’t pay out the settlement deals because of a corrupt insurance policy. She starts digging and asking questions and eventually discovers the heart of the issue: a law firm called Mossack Fonseca.

ā€œThe wealth management you deserveā€ is the Panama firm’s motto, and Ellen’s deepening investigation soon teaches her all about wealth and money: ā€œThe idea of money. The necessity of money. The secret life of money.ā€

But most importantly, Ellen decides that this corruption has to stop. And in order to stop the laundering of money, you have to put the laundromat out of business
