But within fifteen months he had made a spectacular escape from Wandsworth Prison, and he has been on the loose ever since. In Odd Man Out, Ronald Biggs speaks openly about the robbery and his years on the run and reveals for the first time how he has eluded justice for so long. This is the highly entertaining story of the man who is truly the quintessential lovable rogue of our time. A rogue who remains, thirty years on, the odd man out. Vissza
