***TheSunday Times Bestseller ***

With stories of murder, theft, fraud and treachery, The Underworld is a deep-dive into the history of professional and organised crime in Britain. From the racetrack gangs and the smash-and-grab merchants, through the Soho vice bosses and the Kray twins, to the Great Train Robbers, the Hatton Garden burglars and the new wave of international hit-men and drug and sex traffickers, Duncan Campbell exposes the dark underbelly of Britain.

A unique perspective – told by the criminals themselves and the detective who pursued them – this is a definitive history from the very beginning to the present day.

When it comes to stellar crime reporting, Duncan Campbell is the absolute maestro * Baroness Helena Kennedy QC *
Duncan Campbell remains one of the very few journalists who has retained the criminal fraternity’s trust and respect * Howard Marks, author of Mr Nice *
