Elizabeth Forsyth - former chairperson of Asil Nadir's private finance company, South Audley Management, which was raided by the Serious Fraud Office in 1990 - reveals the truth about Polly Peck, the FTSE 100 high-flyer that collapsed after the raid. She tells how the shareholders were left with nothing, and of the subsequent vilification and persecution of both herself and its charismatic founder, Asil Nadir. This is the inside story of their dramatic six-year battle to uncover the dubious activities of the Serious Fraud Office and to clear their names. It implicates the SFO, the Inland Revenue and the Stock Exchange in a face-saving, political cover-up. Corruption, collusion and calumny in the highest strata of the British establishment involves the dismissal of a minister and the compromising of a High Court judge.
