Description
Bandit Country is a gripping and atmospheric true-crime noir that explores Britain's 1960s gambling boom. As the country emerged from hardship, it turned to exotic nightlife and entertainment, supplied by the Mafia.
The story revolves around two sets of brothers: the Luvaglios, who dreamed of building an empire among Newcastle's industrial skylines and bridges, and the Kray twins, who looked up to this new kingdom from London and sought a slice of action for themselves. However, their aspirations were marred by betrayal, murder, and a shocking miscarriage of justice.
The book is a visceral account of empires crumbling, friendships turning against each other, and the good times coming to an abrupt halt. It's a tale that will leave you with a lasting impression of the darker side of human nature.
