Roy Shaw Unleashed

Kate Kray is the bestselling author of Diamond Geezers and the Hard Bastards series. She also co-wrote Roy Shaw's bestselling autobiography Pretty Boy. Formerly the wife of gangster Ronnie Kray, her books make regular appearances in the top ten and she is now a high-profile TV presenter.

When Kate Kray wrote Pretty Boy, she interviewed scores of people. Almost without exception, as she was leaving, they would say to her, 'I'll tell you something about Roy - but don't tell him I told you...' These stories were too shocking and close to the bone to include without Roy's permission - now that permission has been granted. The result is genuinely blood-curdling. Roy Shaw: Unleashed is a collection of those stories, as told by Roy himself and those close to him. True stories of murder and violence; the final truth about his famous fights with Lenny 'The Guv' nor' McLean; incredible tales from inside the shadowy criminal fraternity from the likes of Mad Frankie Fraser and the Richardsons. It also reveals a gentler side to this relentless fighting machine as Kate searches for the one thing that will make Roy's intriguing life complete - the lost love who has eluded him for the last twenty years...
