Add to basketPaperback. Condition: Very Good. The Sunday Times bestseller and inspiration for the ITV drama Diamonds are a girl's best friend Joan Hannington was the most notorious female figure in London's criminal underworld during the 80s, earning her the nickname 'The Godmother'. With her stunning looks and glamorous wardrobe, Joan was constantly underestimated, but she used this to her advantage and became an undetected mastermind in high-stakes jewellery theft. Often transforming herself into different characters, Joan seamlessly got away with millions of pounds in diamonds. Coming from a violent, loveless childhood, Joan learnt to trust no one but herself. At seventeen, she becomes a mother, but is trapped in a disastrous marriage with a brutal thug. When he goes on the run, Joan seizes the moment to leave her old life. Motivated by her desire to care for her daughter, Joan gets swept up in the exhilarating world of a life of crime and makes some heartbreaking decisions as she sets her sights on a better life. Joan is the true story of her meteoric rise from petty offender to one of Britain's most accomplished diamond thieves, making a success of life by not playing by the rules when the odds seemed stacked against her. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

In Don't Stand Too Close to a Naked Man, Tim Allen takes us through the rites of passage, from fixing up his banana-seat Stingraywhich was fine until he decided to spray-paint it purpleto a discourse on the various "sugar food groups". He ponders why parents believe that kids don't want to eat the same thing every night, the nature of his mom's cooking ("What is cubed steak, anyway?"), and fun with BB guns. He reveals his earliest moment of sexual awareness, which occurred when he saw his first Playboy pinup, and realized that every woman is naked underneath her clothes.
