crayonhussy Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Have you read 'Cocky'? That's not a bad book, lots of scousers and crime in that one Yes mate, the devil is a good one also powder wars got powder wars for xmas (not the kind of thing you would expect to get off your mum ) but havent got round to starting it yet. cocky was a good read - a true career criminal at work. he has just been done again for being the brains behind that jersey drug smuggling ring... "costa del crime" was also a good read - the blurb on the front cover says it all.... Mr Nice - "During the mid 19802 Howard Marks had forty-three aliases, eighty-nine phone lines and owned twenty-five companies trading throughout the world. At the height of his career he was smuggling consignments of up to thirty tons of marijuana, and had contact with organisations as diverse as MI6, the CIA, the IRA and the Mafia. Following a worldwide operation by the Drugs Enforcement Agency, he was busted and sentenced to twenty-five years in prison at Terre Haute Penitentiary, Indiana. He was released in April 1995 after serving seven years of his sentence." Brilliant book, amazing story for the times. Would definatelly suggest reading this if you like a criminal orientated book.
