Dust jacket is protected in clear plastic sleeve. Pages are clean and unmarked and in excellent condition. When Reggie Kray walked into a public bar and shot Albert Donoghue from behind Albert learned that the Twins meant business. The hit was intended to avenge a loose remark and also to test Albert's loyalty to the underworld code of silence. It was a test that Albert passed admirably. And so he became Reggie's right-hand man his minder and chief executive. He was deeply implicated in their criminal rackets collecting protection money and acting as paymaster to the other members of the firm. But then the Krays made what was to be one of their most dangerous mistakes. They tried to get Donoghue to admit to the killing of Frank Mitchell. Albert who had become increasingly appalled by the violent turn the Twins' business affairs had been taking testified against them. His evidence landed the Krays 30 years. Albert and his family were sentenced to a lifetime of watching their backs. In this book Albert Donoghue reveals the shocking events he witnessed - it is the inside story of the Krays from a radically different standpoint sensationally charting the rise of the country's most notorious criminals and their final descent into self-destruction.

Jaycee Dugard
A Stolen Life
Simon & Schuster London 2011. Reprint. Medium Trade Paperback. Very Good. 273 pages. Covers have no creasing. Spine has minimal reading creases. Pages are lightly tanned. Previous owner's name in ink. On 10 June 1991 eleven-year-old Jaycee Dugard was abducted from a school bus stop within sight of her home in Tahoe California. It was the last her family and friends saw of her for over eighteen years. On 26 August 2009 Dugard her daughters and Phillip Craig Garrido appeared in the office of her kidnapper's parole officer in California. Their unusual behaviour sparked an investigation that led to the positive identification of Jaycee Lee Dugard living in a tent behind Garrido's home. During her time in captivity at the age of fourteen and seventeen she gave birth to two daughters both fathered by Garrido. Dugard's memoir as yet untitled is being written by the 30-year-old herself and covers the period from the time of her abduction in 1991 up until the present. In her stark compelling narrative Jaycee opens up about what she experienced including how she feels now a year after being found.
