Bandit Country (Paperback)

They say that crime doesn't pay, but somebody has forgotten to tell the criminals! Burglary, drugs, car theft and anti-social behaviour are all in a day's experience on the Belthorpe Estate in Leeds. However, some people have had enough and are fighting back, taking the law into their own hands. Who is behind the vigilante attacks? And what happens when the forces of law and order can't, or wont, do anything about it? Welcome to Bandit Country...From the killing ground of Northern Ireland at the height of 'The Troubles' to the mean streets of a contemporary housing estate, and with the War on Terror as its backdrop Bandit Country takes us on one man's journey through modern Britain - a Britain where people live with the stress of economic meltdown and lawlessness on the streets. But what lies at the heart of this journey is a quest for justice that will, in the end, threaten to reveal the deepest, darkest secrets at the heart of modern government. Will those secrets be revealed, or will the journey end as it began, in an explosion of death and destruction...
