No One Would Listen: A True Financial Thriller is a
book by
whistleblower Harry Markopolos about his investigation into the
Madoff investment scandal and how the
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission failed to react to his warnings. The book was released on March 2, 2010 by
John Wiley & Sons.

Markopolos was a guest on
The Daily Show with Jon Stewart on March 8, 2010.
Reception[edit]
The
New York Journal of Books felt that the book provided "a really insightful look into the world of high finance, and the best explanation of the Madoff fraud", but found that it had "too much (...) about Markopolos himself, his family, his friends".
[2] Publishers Weekly called it "an astonishing true-life
whodunit", with the repercussions of Madoff's downfall serving as "a satisfying conclusion";
[3] LexisNexis, however, faulted Markopolos for being overly critical of the SEC,
[4] and at the
Wall Street Journal,
Richard Tofel (while conceding the quality of Markopolos's investigative work) stated that — by describing his own fears of retribution from
organized crime — Markopolos "sheds more light than he intends on just why no one would listen."
