Martin Baker is a national
newspaper columnist, currently writing for Daily Telegraph and the
Independent on Sunday, and is married to Nicola Horlick, one of the
UK’s most influential businesswomen. Both are in New Zealand to chat
about Martin's debut thriller about money, power and obsession set in
the cut-throat world of financial high-flyers. The plot of Meltdown bears a striking similarity
to events currently shaking the world’s financial markets – is it
closer to fact than fiction?
