A Silly Snowy Day

Sur le fichier central de la police, Luke Reid s'est vu attribuer trois lettres : JDM. Pour jeune Délinquant Multirécidiviste. A quinze ans, il traîne la moitié du temps dans la rue à la recherche d'une bonne affaire. Quelque chose à voler, qu'il pourrait garder ou bien revendre. Alors que Luke est sur un coup sympa, le vol d'une belle paire de baskets à l'arrière d'un 4x4, deux caïds le prennent par surprise, piquent le véhicule et tout dérape. Pour éviter la détention, Luke va devoir prendre un autre chemin. Un chemin finalement plus escarpé que celui de sa vie de petit voleur. Pour la première fois, quelqu'un va lui faire confiance. Elle s'appelle Jodi, elle est aveugle. Et pourtant elle voit, mieux que tous les autres. Surtout quand Luke est prêt à tout, même à se soumettre une dernière fois à la loi des caïds, pour la protéger du pire.

It's London, 1969 and the Old Bailey sees the end of what was the longest and most expensive trial ever held, dubbed 'The trial of the century?: starring notorious Kray Twins, Ron and Reg. Unlike the real verdict, in this fictional story, the verdict is 'Not Guilty? and Ron and Reg, still in their prime and mid-30s, walk free. This book is an alternative outcome at what could have happened had this been the case. After years of relentless microscopic research in many fields down to their personalities, ambitions, likes, mannerisms and much more, this aims to do justice to their legacy had they not been incarcerated and had they continued as free men. Regrouping, settling scores, making up for lost time and overall settling sights high as they always did.
