In March 1969, twins Reggie and Ronnie Kray were sentenced to life imprisonment for the gangland killings of George Cornell and Jack "the hat" McVitie. It was recommended that they served at least 30 years for their crimes. But why such strong sentences? Were there other murders? At last the truth can be told. The authors have negotiated rare interviews with the people close to the Krays criminal activities, people who have never stepped forward before but have done so now to tell the truth concerning the East End's bloodiest killers. This is the shocking true story of the Krays' reign of terror. With a special foreword by ex-gangster Eric Mason, this is the most authentic first-hand document of the Kray Twins. Prepare to be disturbed.

Lenny Hamilton was born and raised in the East End of London. Turning to crime, he became a jewel thief, brushing shoulders with the Krays and eventually being on the receiving end of their wraith - branded with cold steels by Ronnie Kray. Craig Cabell is a writer, editor and journalist. For over 15 years he has written a dozen books and worked extensively within the arts. His previous true crime biography The Kray Brothers - The Image Shattered was well received and forged his friendship with Lenny Hamilton.
"A thorough, chilling, and absorbing true-crime chronicle." —Kirkus Reviews
