About the author

Nick Perry spent his childhood in Dorset, out in the countryside daydreaming most of the time. He was educated at Parkstone Sea Training School before leaving for London where he worked for ATV Television. He travelled around Europe moving from job to job until he came into money. On impulse he bought a hill farm in North Wales, some experiences of which form the backdrop to Peaks and Troughs. He lives with his wife Arabella in the Wiltshire countryside where he spends his time writing, walking and listening to classical music.

Reviews

[Anton Segers · Rating 3 out of 5]

BBC-hoorspel over scheidsrechters en omkoping. Genuanceerd geschreven, met veel begrip voor hun moeilijk werk, goed geacteerd ook, maar wel achterhaald door de invoering van de VAR - en ook enigzins ongeloofwaardig qua plottwists.
