About this listen
“Fascinating Krays’ stories from an insider: some terrifying, others funny.” (Shaun Attwood)
Britain's most notorious twins – Ron and Reg Kray – rose through the ranks of the underworld to become the most feared and legendary gangsters in London. Their escalating mayhem culminated in murder, for which the brothers received life sentences in 1969.
While incarcerated, they received letters from a schoolboy from Tyneside, Steve Wraith, who had grown fascinated by their story. Eventually, Steve visited them in prison and a friendship formed. The Twins hired Steve as an unofficial advisor, which brought him close to more members of the crime family.
Steve documents Ron’s time in Broadmoor – a high-security psychiatric hospital – where he was battling insanity and heavily medicated. Steve details visiting Reg, who served almost 30 years in a variety of prisons, where the gangster was treated with the utmost respect by the staff and the inmates.

not a criminal, just a loyal friend
you are taken on a journey and a nd see a young guy mesmerised by these ' gangsters'..that soon goes. you go through the twists and turns and get an insight into the krays themselves and steves friendships. He also reminds us of their brother Charlie, sometimes forgotten.
steve is an interesting guy himself. some of us have had mates people can't believe we give our time to. but sometimes these mates teach us something that makes us a little less nieve, and spot a fake miles away.
. Decide for yourself if this books for you, steve is not gullable when it comes to their crimes. His story will keep you listening. Beautifully written by himself and the other gentleman Stuart. The narrator brings it all to life. I could say so much more but I don't want to give too much away

eastender legends..
I enjoy anything about the east end and especially about the Krays but struggled to take in the east end atmosphere with the narrator being a geordie. sorry guys but that spoilt it for me and lost the gangster vibe
