This is my memoir of Billy and Gyp Hill – Britain’s most successful criminal couple – and me, their only child. Billy was the Boss of Britain’s Underworld. A mentor to the Kray twins, Billy introduced ‘project crime’ to Britain and got clean away with the 1952 Eastcastle Street robbery even though the authorities knew that he did it. Gyp was the Queen of the Underworld. A fiery beauty who fought like a man, she was the female brains behind many of Billy’s crime successes. Glamorous Gyp partied with celebrities and Britain's ex-pat upper classes and ran a top nightclub in Tangier - with the chief of police as her minder - before retiring to raise me as a law-abiding citizen. This extraordinary 'true crime' story is also a love story.
