Hardback. It is Britain's most famous and lucrative cash robbery, an audacious raid on a supposedly impregnable Security Express depot that lifted £6 million. The armed robbers struck on Easter Monday, April 4, 1983, hauling away 5 tons of cash. Nothing had been left to chance. There were no mistakes and no clues left behind. John Knight and his brother Ronnie were well-known faces in the London underworld, hard men who kept to the code of the traditional East End gangster. Outwardly respectable businessmen, their prosperous lifestyles were funded by the proceeds of serious crime. They were riding high when John Knight and his hand-picked team executed the perfect robbery, and Ronnie help launder the cash. They almost got away with it..Illus., Source Notes and Index. 396pp. lg. 8vo. h/back. As New in dw. Appears unread. A fairly heavy book which will require additional postage if shipped overseas.
