Description

Drawing on exclusive final interviews with Frank, and with unprecedented access to his closest relatives, Mad Frank and Sons follows his rise from a small kid stealing to put food on the table to a feared and respected West End crime lord and head of a legendary gangland family. It includes the story of Frank's beloved sister, Eva, who was a top-class West End shoplifter, and his sons David and Patrick, who reveal in shocking detail the full extent of the family's network and the influences that shaped them. With sawn-off shotguns as toys, the Kray twins as family friends and a mother who urged them as teenagers to 'get out of bed and rob a bleedin' bank', it is little wonder that the Fraser boys were heavily involved in organized crime by the time they were in their twenties. Packed with new information, and featuring some of the most famous names in the London underworld, this is a fascinating slice of gangland history seen through the eyes of Frank Fraser and his two renegade sons.

Author Biography:

Frank and his sons have, together, spent more than sixty years at Her Majesty's Pleasure in some of Britain's toughest prisons. Frank was a gangland enforcer for crime boss Billy Hill before becoming a leader in the underworld of the Krays and Richardsons. Patrick and David's criminal career includes armed robbery and drug-running. Both are now retired. Beezy Marsh is an award-winning journalist who has written for the Daily Mail and Sunday Times.
