Sinopsis
The rollicking true story of a 1930s version of Bernie Madoff - and the building and loan crash he helped precipitate - in a wonderful work of narrative non-fiction. Shortfall opens with a surprise discovery in an attic and launches into a fast-paced story that uncovers the dark secrets in Echols's family. In a narrative filled with colourful characters and profound insights into the American past, Shortfall is also the essential backstory to more recent financial crises, from the savings and loan debacle of the 1980s and 1990s to the subprime collapse of 2008.

Over a six-month period in 1932, all four of the building and loan associations in Colorado Springs, Colorado, crashed in an awful domino-like fashion, leaving some of the town's citizens destitute. The largest of these associations was owned by author Alice Echols's grandfather, Walter Davis, who absconded with millions of dollars in a case that riveted the national media.
