‘Seychelles Idyll’ is an evocative, gripping novella set in a remote part of the British Empire at around the time when colonial rule was coming to an end.

With miniscule resources, those involved in preparing for the handover to independence in the Seychelles had to deal with problems that had arisen from years of neglect, racism, and old-fashioned colonial snobbery. The situation was made more complicated by international powers having an interest in the outcome. In order to assist in turning the Seychelles police into a modern service capable of dealing with the oncoming demands of independence, Ed Morris, a police inspector from London is sent to help. Seen through his eyes the events that take place are complicated, demanding, hilarious, and entertaining.
