Suggestions for forensic accounting books

I was reading a book today that mentioned a couple of forensic accounting books.

From the point of view of an equity analyst looking to identify "yellow flags" for further investigation, are there any books you would recommend ? Ideally I am looking for books that would be applicable worldwide.

I'm not really looking for: - US-centric books that mostly contain concepts only relevant to the US and US accounting. - Heavy-going textbook-style tomes more applicable to trainee accountants

The books suggested in this other book are : • The Financial Numbers Game, Detecting Creative Accounting Practices (2002) • Financial Shenanigans (2010)

So I guess preferably something more up-to-date ? (If applicable !)

Thanks !
