Operation Acid was devised by the Police in 1996, it's sole intent to facilitate the arrest of Charlie Kray, eldest brother of the notorious Kray Twins. Could the Kray who was scraping a living from appearing at events and living off the royalties from his book really be capable of organising an GBP78M drugs deal? This book gives a unique insight into the case from beginning to end and includes over 250 pages of undercover transcripts, newspaper articles, letters and previously unseen photographs, allowing the reader to decide whether Charlie Kray was the mastermind behind an elaborate, multi-million pound drug deal or simply the victim of an elaborate police sting.

Steve is in his 40s and still doesn't know what he wants to be when he grows up.He has been a sub-postmaster, a head doorman on some of the toughest nightclubs on Tyneside, worked for the infamous Kray twins when they were incarcerated, trained to become a professional actor starring on stage and screen, was part of the football fanzine revolution in the 90s... oh and he's written and produced some canny books along the way. In his spare time he follows Newcastle United and Dunston UTS Football Clubs, likes to read books and watch documentaries on crime and he is a devoted Freemason. He's got more contacts than a call centre, author liaison extraordinaire and is an ideas man with a publicity plan.

paperback. Etat : Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
