First dip into the crime non-fiction world and honestly, it wasn’t horrific and it wasn’t breathtaking either. I would have much rather watched the documentary, because that’s exactly how it read, like the subtitles to a documentary. There were footnotes on most pages with evidence and sources for the facts, which made me feel like a teacher marking work. Once I got used to that, which took more than halfway through the book, it was an interesting account of avoiding jail time at all costs. It’s a deep dive into Noye’s journey - where he went and didn’t go is worth knowing, but it won’t make it onto my recommendations list.

A good read, certainly from the Stephen Cameron/Noye on the run perspective, though having read Neil Forsyth's extensively researched book on the Brink's Mat robbery, MacIntyre and Howman's coverage of that robbery appears weak and poorly researched in comparison. Book could have done with more extensive editing prior to publication.

It sure is a v elaborated book on that one man. I won't say it is long and boring. It does take a patient person to read and discover how the story unfolds. So read this if you are curious about this guy, or if you simply love story that takes its time to slowly unfold.
