Its a profession where the dynamics of fear, faast cars, faster money and spontaneous, yet controlled violence need to be properly understood. Brute force needs to be balanced with intelligent instinct, every escape route must be memorized and trouble-makers must be spotted before they make their move. This is the autobiography of one of the most successful and daring armed robbers of his generation. Reformed criminal Terence Smith reveals the secrets of his success and tells how he became Britain's most wanted criminal, leading up to the chain of events that led up to his first job. It was a job that nearly cost him his life and left him facing a 20-year-stretch.
