Description
MAD FRANK is Frankie Fraser's own extraordinary story - the truth about the legendary villain who for fifty years was a key figure in Britain's underworld. A peer of the Krays and the Richardsons, arguably as influential and certainly as dangerous, Fraser has served over 40 years in prisons and mental institutions for his various crimes. MAD FRANK - A man who has been at the cutting edge of crime in this country, and who took the time to sharpen it while he was there.
