About the Book
This is a glimpse into my life, including growing up in a rough area of South East London as a child in the 70's, through to the 80's, 90's, and up to the present day. You will join me on a journey that at times will take you on a roller-coaster ride to hell and back, as I try to navigate my way through the dark world of drugs, robbery and other hard core elements of crime and general skulduggery. I will lead you to underworld places that most people wouldn't care or even dare to frequent, from seedy gambling clubs hidden within the labyrinth type back streets of Soho, to the blood stained world of old school gangster activity, and then to the depths of despair whilst locked away within the murky spine-chilling walls of her Majesty's prisons. There are moments when you will laugh with me and laugh at me as I share some of my many fun and sexy times I had whilst going through my teens and early 20's. When you buy this book you'll find it is packed full of sleazy one night stands, punch-ups, burglary’s, murderers and the odd attempted murder. Inside Out will have you turning the pages with anticipation right to the end in eagerness to discover what happened next.
About the Author
I am a loving caring 41 Year old Father of two, who after having spent the first 30 years of my life navigating my way through the often perilous crime ridden streets of South East London and often ending up on the wrong side of the law, have decided to share some of my most dangerous, terrifying, funny and Romantic experiences by writing this book. I had a good education and come from a very close family. All though my mother was a very loving, balanced, principled, quite strict and very wise parent inside the home, the streets of Peckham were full of temptation and opportunity for a young lad, which often meant bending the rules. I was always taught manners and politeness and most of all to respect authority and my elders, but when on the streets or out and about with my mates, I could also be a foul mouthed jack the lad. I have learnt many of life’s lessons and hard knocks over the years and now consider myself to be a wise man due to those reasons. In this book I aim to give an insight into how circumstances of certain societies and predicaments can play a big role in shaping a person’s character. I am confident that many of the readers will be able to empathise with my story, if not at least gain an understanding of particular personality’s.
