Ten percent of nothing

by Jim Fisher

Former FBI agent Jim Fisher upends the genteel racket of fee-based literary agents and vanity publishers in this searing look at the rise and fall of one bogus entrepreneur who systematically swindled thousands of would-be writers out of millions of dollars with promises of having their work turned into salable books. In divulging the details of this colossal and shocking confidence game, the author exposes a growing and serious crime against writers and a dark, ugly secret about the American publishing industry.
