Description
The Great Train Robbery's mastermind reveals his story for the first time. Gordon Goody, the enigmatic figure behind Britain's most notorious heist, shares his life of crime and deception in this gripping memoir. Born in rural Northern Ireland, Goody's journey took a dramatic turn when he turned to a life of robbery. As one of London's most professional and prolific thieves, he was approached by The Ulsterman with an offer he couldn't refuse: details of a lucrative mail train. This is the story of how Goody and his gang pulled off the crime of a lifetime. For five decades, Goody kept his silence. Now, he breaks his vow of secrecy to reveal the truth behind one of history's most infamous robberies.
