Law Enforcement Biographies

Just after 7p.m. on Tuesday 4 March, 1969, the jurors filed back into the Old Bailey courtroom to give their verdict on Ronald Kray. The word ‘guilty’ brought to a triumphant conclusion the months of hard work put in by Leonard ‘Nipper’ Read and his team.

In 1964 Read was invited to put together a team to ‘have a go’ at the Krays. Here he charts his extraordinary investigation, from the first time he saw Ronald in a pub on the Whitechapel Road – where he turned up flanked by minders – to the brothers’ eventual arrest in May 1968 and their sensational trial.

Nipper Read is the enthralling story of the life of a London detective. It is a tale teeming with the names that defined the era: Billy Hill, Jack Spot, Frank Mitchell and ‘Mad’ Frankie Fraser; porn dealers like James Humphries; and police officers such as Ernie ‘Hooter’ Millen.

History of Military Special Forces

The untold story of an elite SAS patrol behind enemy lines during the Persian Gulf War is vividly revealed in this gripping chronicle.

Iraq, January, 1991. Three patrols—Bravo One Zero, Bravo Two Zero, and Bravo Three Zero—were flown deep behind enemy lines to hunt down Saddam’s Scud missiles, the use of which threatened a third World War. The men of Bravo One Zero saw the flat desert devoid of cover and decided not to deploy. When Andy McNab’s famed Bravo Two Zero patrol did deploy, the results were tragic—all but one was captured or killed.

Then there was Bravo Three Zero. Deploying despite the lack of cover, they could make a dash for the border if desperate. Even as warnings came in that McNab’s patrol was on the run, Bravo Three Zero continued undetected—becoming the Coalition forces furthest behind Iraqi lines and taking out a string of targets along the way. But with the desert turning bitter and snow starting to fall, they were forced to fight a running battle against the elements as much as the adversary.
