Making London Large

by Garry Robson, Roy Robson

‘Making London Large’ is a collection of articles, reviews and historical stories that provide context and background to the best-selling 'London Large' crime thriller series. It is a non-fiction book aimed, primarily, at those who have read the novels, although those who have not may be interested in some of the articles and blog posts contained herein.

The book reveals insights into the social history and criminal culture of the city from which our protagonist Detective Inspector Harry ‘H’ Hawkins emerged and in which he operates.

Subjects include everything from Russian ‘hybrid-war’ tactics to drone panics, from what makes serial murderers tick to true stories of incarceration and escape, from how the Eastern European crime gangs run London to the state of British prisons today.

All of this, as well as film and book reviews and recommendations, makes this volume an interesting read for London Large fans and anyone interested in London’s criminal history and culture.

I enjoyed this book. I was on the edge of my seat throughout the book. I kept wondering what else could go wrong for this family? There were so many bad things happening and it seemed unlikely that Harry could solve these problems. But things really did work out in an amazing way. The author does a great job as usual and it is one of the best books he has written so far!! I am impressed!

Nice little read I was born and bred in London, somethings I still remember areas have been done up beyond recognition but still some seedier part exist, I left London when I got married some 50yrs so quite a bit has changed but it's not the London I knew and loved.
