Grafters : Mancs abroad : more inside stories from Europe's most prolific sneak thieves
Blaney, Mark2018
Books
The tale of Manchester lads who lived high on the hog for a couple of decades across Europe robbing the natives blind. Like all rollercoaster rides, they knew it couldn't last - this is the tale of how they survived when so many others didn't make it. Mark Blaney followed in the footsteps of his brother Colin when he realised he wasn't cut out for work of any kind. By the 80s Mark had joined his brother on Interpol's most wanted list as a prolific sneak thief, part of a gang that would regularly turnover thousands of pounds worth of jewellery a week.
