| Publisher Description: A story of the men who ran the underworld of crime and drugs in the post WWII period during and after rationing. Harry teamed up with his protege the 'Kid' to take over the warehouses run by two bosses. They are known for their ruthless methods of errant payment from punters and those who oppose them; with more than a dozen murder's to their names. They become the drug lords of the Manchester area during the early 60's when LSD is making it into the new disco clubs and high society parties. The newly formed Drug Enforcement Agency try for over 5 years to find enough evidence to convict both Harry and the Kid but 3 of their men are murdered and 2 sent to prison on trumped up charges before they get a break from an unlikely source. |
