The notorious Bacon Brothers : inside gang warfare on Vancouver streets

Langton, Jerry 1965- (author.).

Summary: "Infamous and seemingly untouchable, the Bacon Brothers publicly lived the successful gangster lifestyle to a tee, with flashy cars, jewelry and a serious reputation for violence. What was unusual was their comfortable, middle-class upbringing and stable family life-- rather than being left with no option but crime, they seemed to hae made a conscious decision to step outside the law. Unfortunately for them, nothing in the criminal underworld is permanent, and shifting alliances, rivalries and police work eventually caught up with each of them."--P. [4] of cover.
