Synopsis
This book tells the story of Frank Cater, whose last post was Commander of the Flying Squad. It tells of some of the remarkable investigations behind the clashes between armed robbers and police on the streets of London. Cater's final investigation was into the Brinks Mat gold bullion robbery of #26,000,000. He was also one of the team that smashed the Richardson gang, who terrorized the South London underworld by torture, and the Kray firm. Cater became an expert on armed robbery, with sources of information so good that he could often predict where robbers would strike next. Co-author Tom Tullett is the author of "Strictly Murder", a history of Scotland Yard's murder squad, and "Clues to Murder", the cases of the forensic scientist Professor "Taffy" Cameron.
