Publisher's Synopsis
Michael Harrison, 57, is a Cambridge law graduate and a chartered accountant who spent 30 years in the financial world. As he puts it, he 'has seen the beast'. He is based in London, but his work takes him all around the world, from the penthouse splendour of New York to the pulsing bars of Hong Kong; from Frankfurt's solemn boardrooms to the stinging heat of Singapore streets. His writing incorporates what he knows. He offers an insider perspective of boardroom politics and financial dealings, lending authenticity and credibility to his work.
