The Boss is a man who commands respect: from his family, from his friends, and from hard men on both sides of the law. A bare-knuckle champion, he finds himself wrongly imprisoned for a crime he did not commit. Now free from the constraints of the prison world, he must forge a new life for himself on the outside. As he tries to save his marriage and his tempestuous but loving relationship with his daughter, he embarks upon a bizarre journey through London's underworld, encountering a host of curious villains who stand between him and his efforts to rehabilitate himself.

The Boss is a story of hard men and tough villains, a story of honour and respect; of a life on the street where your word is everything, and your fists do the talking.

'I can't remember the last time I read such an exciting novel. The description of the criminal world is amazing' – Kate Kray
