Summary
"Michael is living proof that love always has the power to bring you home." (Charlie Mackesy)
"A cracking read. Really gets to the bottom of the madness of a man fighting his demons." (Ray Winstone)
"His life may have had its ups and downs, but it is wonderful example of God’s transforming power." (Nicky Gumbel, Vicar of HTB & pioneer of Alpha)
Growing up, Michael wanted nothing more than to follow in his dad’s footsteps and join the family business. Aged 18, he did just that and entered into the glamourous, dangerous world of organised crime.
Michael’s father, a career criminal and contemporary of the infamous Krays, was a wayward role model. Soon, Michael’s criminal activities were funding a reckless lifestyle of drugs, sex, and violence.
But the high couldn’t last. In 1993, both men were arrested for their involvement in a £13-million smuggling operation. Michael was sentenced to 12 years, serving time in the same prison as his dad.
Inside HMP Exeter, Michael found something he had never expected: answers. A chance encounter in the prison chapel led to an experience that would shake the foundations of his life.
This is a true story of trauma and transformation, one man’s search for redemption, and the struggle to become the father he never had.

Sins of Fathers
This book was recommended to me by a friend who had actually met Michael and was fascinated by the man, I listened to the audio version while driving and it was very interesting but also very "predictable".....

Loved every word
Every chapter was honest and gripping. I particularly loved the Epilogue where Michael brought us up to date with the people in his life.
What a life full of ups and downs. It shows that crime doesn’t pay. Good luck Michael.

Brilliant listen
I’ve read/listened lots of books written around the London underworld, this one really tells the story warts an all, Micheal pours his soul out, a tough listen at some points but funny in others.
I’d highly recommend this if you want a true depiction of life on the other side of the law and where it can lead you as well as ultimately some sort of redemption

Sins of Fathers, is captivating book, I really enjoyed listening on audible, narrated by the author really brings his story to life. A true account of his life and is well written and you feel honesty throughout. This book interesting and encouraging to people from all walks of life. I finished the listening to the in a week, being new to audible I’m so pleased this was one of my first books on my list. I’ve recommended to all my friends and feel it will be a great witness to many.
