HAYES. STEPHEN

The anticipated final book in the Biggest Gang in Britain trilogy. Moving on from the brutally honest accounts of police work during the 1960s and 1970s to the private detective sector of the 1980s and 1990s. The latest book gives further eye opening, and gripping revelations of accepted practices then and until the Human Rights Act of 1998 when such devious practices went underground and of course were constantly denied, but actively used until and beyond the prosecutions, imprisonment and further revelations concerning the News of the World journalists and others. As with Hillsborough, Jimmy Savile, Plebgate etc. in relation to the culture of lies and fabrication within the police the hacking, bribing and blagging practices of the media using private detectives were shockingly revealed for all to see. Following hot on the tracks of such revelations comes Top Secrets and once again, written in the same style as the first two books but this time naming names. Of course the book comes with hard hitting humour, is refreshing and surprising and if nothing else gives an entertaining insight into what were once accepted practices of private detectives and now all said to be underground and of course hidden in a blanket of denial. A colourful life, many amusing high spots but tinged with heart breaking sadness, charity work, Christianity and support of Firehiwot Abebe an Ethiopian five year old through Compassion, a charity releasing children from poverty. Every purchase gives valuable support to this child whose favourite game is sadly, jumping and her favourite food is rice and other little children with similar simple pleasures.

A hard hitting, brutally honest account of police work during the late 1960s and 1970s. Whilst explicit, it is often humorous, refreshing and equally unbelievable. In this ?rst book of a trilogy the author takes the reader through his early police service and in doing so reveals many working practices which in reality have become a culture of dishonesty, lies and often stupidity which has been accepted by the Government of the day, the judiciary and the public at large for many years. That is until the present day when it has all gone so wrong. Very, very wrong with the revelations of the Hillsborough Investigation, the Jimmy Savile Investigation, so many more and even Plebgate when The Biggest Gang believed they were so powerful that evidence against Andrew Mitchell, a member of Her Majestys Government left so many questions, yet to be answered. This book explains that such examples are not typical of a minority rogue element as being claimed but are a dishonest culture, born so long ago but allowed to fester and grow with the many examples and revelations which have continued until today with Hillsborough as only one shocking example.

A sensational second book in The Biggest Gang trilogy from detective turned author Stephen Hayes. Fifty Shades Of Black N Blue will not disappoint - the beatings continue, the culture of police corruption is further outlined with yet more real-life examples and theres yet more sex both in and out of uniform. Mr Hayes tells the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth in this shocking sequel to his first book The Biggest Gang In Britain.The new book is slicker and sicker than his first and as compelling as any kicking in the police cells.This volume starts with a bizarre death that led to life-changing alterations for the author and his family. Its already being considered as a movie storyline with one New York Times author describing the plot as "simply superb".Read it and weep - Daily RecordUnlike a rubber truncheon this book will leave marks - Sunday MirrorThe whole truth, like a kick in the crutch, can be very painful - Daily Star SundayThe honesty on the subject of police dishonesty is most refreshing - Stockport Express
