How to Rob the Bank of England

This is a real jaw-dropper. The scale of the theft, the global links of the gangs. The extraordinary figure of Keith Cheeseman. I had no idea - it’s just wonderful! * Peter York *This book tells it warts and all - once started, it’s impossible to put down. A fantastic read. * Dominic Littlewood *A strange and intriguing tale. * Duncan Campbell, author of Underworld *The Mafia Godfather Jon Gotti called him the Big Cheese. He partied with the stars. He stayed in the best hotels and drank vats of fizz. Keith Cheeseman’s story is laced with his wide-boy humour and reads like a Guy Ritchie caper. * The Sun *There is a tremendous cast of dodgy customers surrounding our protagonist. I’m amazed he lived to tell the tale. And ultimately remains at liberty. Funny/sad with laugh-out loud dialogue too. This really should be made into a big box-office film. Riveting. * Andy Martin *
