Gangster No. 1

HMP Pentonville cinder-winter, lock clatter. A grey-haired don learns Freddie Mays walks free after thirty years. His face cracks like old plaster. Teenage feet scuff East End cobbles, join Freddie’s mob, then slide the knife in. A post-Jules-and-Jim British gangster study, slicker than the rain it sluices down.
