Mr Nice by Howard Marks
He was Britain's most wanted man. He spent seven years in America's toughest penitentiary. You'll like him. During the mid 1980s Howard Marks had forty three aliases, eighty nine phone lines and owned twenty five companies throughout the world. He was released in April 1995 after serving seven years of his sentence. This book tells his story.
Frequently hilarious, occasionally sad, and often surreal * GQ *

A man who makes Peter Pan look like a geriatric with sleeping sickness * Loaded *
Racy...with plenty of globe trotting colour * Independent *
