Protection

By John Wainwright

'This isn't Chicago, in the mid-thirties! It isn't even London! A Northern provincial city in 1968. That's all. The Capone era's dead and buried - and it isn't having the kiss of life on my patch!’

Yorkshire, 1968. The protection racket. The Mutual Trust and Accident Prevention Insurance Society; Southerners as criminals.
