This is the true story of the rise and fall of tangerines-to-TV conglomerate Polly Peck and its controversial chief executive. Author Tim Hindle takes a fresh look at the career of Asil Nadir, showing how this Turkish Cypriot immigrant became the ultimate Thatcherite entrepreneur, entertained at Downing Street, a symbol of the financial boom of the 1980s. But when the bubble burst Nadir, an outsider in the City establishment, was to find himself investigated by the Serious Fraud Office in collusion with the tax authorities and the Stock Exchange. Including Nadir's escape to Cyprus and the discovery of his contribution to Tory party funds, this book examines a financial scandal whose reprecussions continue.
