Description
Brian Cockerill has spent two decades enforcing order in his own unique way. Using nothing but his hands as weapons, he patrols the streets and nightclubs of Britain, collecting "taxes" from those who operate outside the law. Those involved in the illicit trade know that if The Taxman is on the scene, it's time to pay up or face the consequences. Despite his fearsome reputation, Cockerill operates according to a strict code of conduct. He has never used firearms and those who have dared to cross him have often regretted their decision. This is a story about a man whose life is both astonishing and terrifying, and one that sheds light on the darker side of British nightlife. The facts of his life are as remarkable as they are disturbing, making for a compelling read about a true figure from the shadows of modern Britain.
