Glamour, money, danger, and luxury - Ronnie Knight knows what it means to live the life of a gangster. Brought up the hard way on the streets of the East End he struggled to make an honest living. After being swept off his feet by sixties sex bomb Barbara Windsor - in his words 'the most desirable woman in the world' - his life changed utterly. He became a face on the London nightclub scene, a snappy dresser and a big spender, a host to celebrities and confidant to every major villain in London. When his younger brother David was stabbed to death in a gangland brawl, Ronnie was in the dock accused of a revenge killing - here he confesses that what he swore on oath was not the whole truth. But it was his part in the record-breaking GBP 7 million Security Express robbery that projected him straight into the league of all-time super-criminals...Here with the acclaimed author of "The Guv'nor," Peter Gerrard, he reveals everything. This is the true story of big money and smooth-talking villains; of a luxurious life of exile on the Costa del Crime; and a story of deceit and intrigue in which the inner workings of the underworld are sensationally revealed.
