Description
Building an empire of organised crime such as nobody has done before or since, the brothers swindled, intimidated, terrorised, extorted and brutally murdered. John Pearson explores the strange relationship that bound the twins together, and charts their gruesome career to their downfall and imprisonment for life in 1969. Now expanded to include further extraordinary revelations, including the unusual alliance between the Kray twins and Lord Boothby-the Tory peer who won Đ40,000 in a libel settlement when he denied allegation of his association with the Krays-?The Profession of Violence? is a truly classic work.
