Fabulous read, finished it in two days. This is how true crime books should be. Reads like a novel for a biography that’s pretty rare. Love the ending, you won’t be disappointed

Fantastic read, couldn’t put it down and read it in a day and a half. Powerful account of a life of bad choices due to family breakdown. This guy lived many lives and that’s what keeps the pace fast moving. A real true crime book with a great ending

I Love this book, couldn’t put it down. Seriously can’t wait for it to be turned into a film. This book should be read by everyone from every walk of life and wow what a conclusion.

Sorry ordered through another site but felt compelled to leave a review. I thought this might be another self promoting hard man gangster story but I was wrong. It’s a wonderful insight into a life that was affected by divorce. How all of the terrible decisions the main character made were as a result of trauma in his childhood. I found myself rooting for him one minute and then angry at him the next until the finale. Page turning and a must read, enjoy.

Definitely one of the best true crime books I have read to date. I’m from Glasgow so could relate to much of his story and I like the way he does not try and make out that’s he’s some hard man like Jimmy Boyle. A compelling story with a great twist at the end...good to see a new life out of the ashes. A great read for men and women alike and I read it in two days which is a minor miracle

Saw this man speak at an event in scotland and I was blow away by his story. Read the old version of his book and this new one reads even better. But it, read it and share it

By far the best True Story I have ever read. A Compelling page turning with a wonderful twist. Highly recommend for reaching the lost.
