Review Quotes:

"If a Wicked Man is a book I can easily relate to, the love of money and a cold heart can drive violent men like us to take by force what we feel society owes us. Brutally honest, deadly serious, yet strangely funny at times. A compelling story of a wicked and violent man...with an unexpected twist."

• Rocco Morelli, Former mafia mobster

"A truly powerful account of a life changed."

• Major General Tim Cross, CBE

"John Lawson was a man who had profiteered on the weakness, fear and vice of others. If a Wicked Man is told faithfully, in simple language, no excuses. Read it, and believe that there is always hope."

• Anne Perry, NYT best-selling author
