The Hatton Garden Heist captured the public's imagination more than
another other crime since The Great Train Robbery. It was supposed
to make a fortune for a team of old time professional criminals.
Their last hurrah. A final lucrative job that would send the old
codgers off on happy retirements to the badlands of Spain and
beyond. It seemed to be the stuff of legends. Tens of millions of
pounds worth of valuables grabbed from secretive safety deposit
boxes in a vault beneath one of the most famous gold and jewellery
districts in the world. But where did it all go wrong for this band
of old time villains? And why did the gang's bid to pull off the
world's biggest burglary turn into a deadly game of cat and mouse
featuring the police and London's most dangerous crime lords?
Nobody is better placed to reveal the full story of the Hatton
Garden Raid than Britain's best-connected true crime writer Wensley
Clarkson. Through his unique contacts inside the London underworld,
he's persuaded those who really know the truth to reveal the
chilling details behind Britain's biggest ever burglary.
