Описание книги

With a frightening capacity for extreme violence, Tyneside protection hardman Viv Graham struck fear into the hearts of his enemies, yet his benevolence to local charities and schemes to keep kids away from drugs and crime was well known. A legend in his own lifetime, he was the ultimate maverick troubleshooter whose size and ability to fight enabled him to live just as he wishes, never forgetting the deprived community he came from, who in times of need, considered him the fourth emergency service. Teeside drugs enforcer Lee Duffy had half his foot shot off in an assassination attempt and his skull beaten with a crowbar, yet his streetwise instinct remained unmatched. Proud to be known as Viv's arch enemy, Lee was feared and respected in equal measure and wanted to get out of the game for the sake of his family, but was so deeply involved that there was only one way he would ever leave…With unprecedented access to friends, family members and associates, Stephen Richards dispels many of the myths surrounding these legendary figures to create the ultimate biography of Britain's deadliest rivals.

In case we forget:

Kattieleigh Duffy

.....

Meanwhile, the attacks on Duffy had gone on. In August 1991, on licensed premises in Middlesbrough, he was set upon by a group of men armed with baseball bats. With weapons ranging from iron bars and baseball bats to shotguns and petrol having been used against him, it can safely be assumed that Duffy was aware that people wanted to hurt him at the very least! And, in doing so, they were no less violent than people were claiming he himself was.

A small consolation perhaps, but Viv Graham suffered fewer armed attempts on his life than his Teesside counterpart. But one incident, in 1989, when Viv was working the doors of a Newcastle nightclub, was particularly troubling. Viv refused entry to a man, who decided to get even. To make things worse, at this time the super-tough doorman was becoming complacent with his own security. This allowed a sinister-looking black Nissan saloon to follow him unnoticed and later pull up and wait for him to get out of the car he was in.
