About this listen

Married to Ron before his death, and a regular correspondent with Reg, Kate Kray was granted unique access to the shadowy underworld they inhabited and was entrusted with some of the darkest secrets they possessed - secrets that could never be revealed until they were both dead.

Featuring exclusive letters and thoughts from the twins themselves as well as anecdotes and tributes from gangsters, actors and East End faces, Kate has produced the definitive view of the Krays.

Fifty years on from their incarceration, this thrilling and, at times, terrifying memoir remains a truly unique portrait of the real men behind the immortal image.

Didn't reveal anything at all, let alone anything new, just a few stories really about her visiting Ron in prison and having normal prison visit conversations. Ardent Kray fans might enjoy it but for the casual observer with a bit of decency and intelligence and who thinks they were just thugs you'll find it mundane.
