Peter Nicholl

He’s gone from fact to fiction.

Cambridge born economist Peter Nicholl, who appears fortnightly in The News with his Talking Economics column, has released a political thriller book.

Sanctions in Paradise has South African infiltrators attempting to sabotage a Finance Ministers’ Conference in Seychelles, leading to “explosive results” Nicholl says of his first book, which has been a decade in the making.

“I actually wrote the book sometime back in the 1980s when I lived and worked in the Seychelles for a year. About two years ago a copy reappeared in a box of papers from my mother’s estate. So I went back over it, made a few changes and decided to try self-publishing.”
