Description
Gangs of Britain: The Faces Who Run British Organised Crime by Wensley Clarkson A gripping account of the dark and glamorous underworld of British organized crime, revealing the shocking truth about the industry's scale and influence. Acclaimed true crime author Wensley Clarkson has met many of Britain's richest and most powerful gangs, leading to a startling conclusion: crime is perhaps the third largest industry in the UK. This revised and updated edition takes a closer look at the changing face of British organized crime, from the old crimes of prostitution and extortion to multi-million dollar drug deals. Clarkson provides an extraordinary insight into the cut-throat world that operates in the shadows, driven solely by profit. With its fascinating and gripping portrayal of Britain's underworld, Gangs of Britain is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in true crime and the social science of organized crime.
