Beschrijving boek
Haunted by the murder of his grandfather when he was six, Brian Oldman holds a terrible secret that he must keep in fear of his life. But there is a more disturbing secret he has yet to discover as he plunges into the criminal underworld of London in the 1950s, where gangs are engaged in savage battles over territory.
Brian’s uncle Jack, a boxer who’s dodging National Service, finds opportunities to make money by providing a bit of muscle as he reaches for the World Light Heavyweight title. Stopped in his title hopes by the Kray twins, he’s determined to destroy them.
Spanning three decades, ‘Crime and Punishment’ follows the lives of one family against the backdrop of a revolution in crime, as the underworld extends its influence to the very heart of the establishment.
