Book description
Ron and Reg. Violent men who brought a code of honour to the
streets that is still observed today. Their deaths bring to an end the
golden era of gangsters whose word was law and whose ferocity
maintained the order of the streets...Nobody knew the twins like Kate
Kray. Married to Ron before his death, she was granted unique access
into the shadowy world they inhabited, and was entrusted with some of
the darkest secrets they possessed - secrets that could never be
revealed until they were both dead. Now, with the help of thoughts and
anecdotes from the people who knew the twins best, Kate has documented
once and for all the life of the world's most famous gangsters, and
filled in the gaps with the facts that could not be revealed until
now. Gangsters, actors, East End faces - everyone who is anyone in the
Firm is here, thanks to Kate's unique access and influence. And in
this remarkable book, the Krays' chief torturer, the man who was with
them on the night they were arrested, has broken his silence for the
very first time.
