Synopsis

The Krays, the Richardsons and men like Buster Edwards or Freddie Foreman may be better known, but by the end of the sixties they were either in prison or living in enforced exile. Joey Pyle was every bit as notorious, feared and respected.

His broad range of criminal contacts and associates ensured he was either involved in or very much aware of every major criminal escapade that took place. From the murder of Jack the hat by the Kray twins to the Great Train Robbery, from the fatal shooting at the Pen Club to the American Mafia's attempts to penetrate London's casino scene, Pyle has seen it all.

A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

My dad stopped me at the top of the stairs, 'What are you doing? You've got a fight tomorrow!'
'But I can earn more money like this.'
'Look son, you've got to make a decision. What do you want to be? A thief of a fighter?'
'Dad, I think I want to be a thief.'
