The Profession of Violence pulls back the curtain on the rise and eventual fall of Ronnie and Reggie Kray, London's most infamous gangsters. Charting their transformation from East End boys to the ruling figures of London’s criminal underworld during the 1960s, John Pearson's vivid account shows how they ran an empire of organised crime the likes of which London had never seen. Built on lies, extortion, and extreme violence and murder, Pearson also shows the strange brotherly relationship that kept them bound in blood until their eventual downfall and imprisonment.

I chose violence. Not because I had to. Because I wanted to. I didn’t grow up in the streets. I grew up on a wealthy island outside Stockholm. And I still chose this life. This is the true story of how I became part of one of Europe’s most feared football firms and what it actually felt like to be there. Not written by a journalist. Not based on rumours. I lived it. I took on a leading role within an AIK sub-group connected to the main firm, moving through a world that stretches across Sweden and into Europe. Sweden’s hooligan scene is not what people think. It’s not chaos. It’s not random.

It took me 37,287 words to describe the impact sexual trauma in the military has had on my life.
