  In 1988 Our Story caused a sensation. The bestselling memoirs of Reg and Ron Kray led to the Peter Medak film, The Krays , and confirmed the potency of the Kray legend. Ron Kray was, if not a silent partner in that book, a more shadowy presence than that of Reg. In this book he fills in the gaps - giving his unique version of the murders of Jack, The Hat McVitie and George Comell, describing his bisexuality and his marriage in Broadmoor, and clarifying many of the misconceptions about the years when he and Reg ruled the London underworld, shot enemies at will and simultaneously socialised with some of the most glittering politicians, celebrities and hostesses of the time. He also tells of life in Broadmoor - not a prison, he stresses, but a hospital. The daily routines, the drugs he must take to keep his equilibrium, his marriage there, his telepathic union with Reg, far away in Lewes jail and his hopes for the future, are all described.
