Crease to bottom edge of back D/J. After more than ten years silence, one of the key figures in the sensational Kray trial has decided to tell his remarkable story. One Saturday night, he was lured to a party that ended in the horrific murder of Jack 'The Hat' McVitie. What happened next not only led to the Kray's downfall, but eventually changed Lambrianou's life. He describes what really happened to McVitie's body, and exposes a side of the Kray twins none of their so-called 'Firm' had the courage to face. In 1969, he was jained for life, with a recommendation that he serve at least fifteen years. In deep despair, he twice tried to kill himself, before having an amazing vision that changed him fundamentally, promting him to become a Christian. Following his release from prison Chris became a Special Needs Officer at a rehabilitation centre near his home in Oxford, often speaking up for young offenders in courts throughout Britain. His transformation gives hope to all those who feel there is no way back for the habitual criminal. This book is a classic story of the triumph of good over evil - a powerful tale with uncomprising honesty.
