A Million Ways to Stay on the Run: The uncut story of the international manhunt for public enemy no.1 Kenny Noye

Good, gripping read. Tells the story and although there is a semblance of balance it dose though seem to look at Noye through rose tinted glasses. Some balance and exploration of the other side of the double murderer would have been beneficial. But would still recommend.

this is a amazing read , fantastic writing put on every page , Could not put it down any more like this ??5 Star

I came across this book quite coincidentally as I was researching for a fictional crime book I am writing, as the 40th anniversary of the Brinks Mat 'job' is in the same year as my purchase of this book. Just one of those strange connections that life seems to deliver.Reading this book, it is quite obvious that Kenneth Noye would have made a formidable secret agent - he was a resourceful, intelligent, planner, and he was thus able to stay 'on the run' abroad for some years without detection after the death of Stephen Cameron in a 'road rage' incident in Kent in 1996 in which Noye was involved.I had left the Police service 6 months before the above incident and I had a gut feeling that there was something not quite right about what was being reported. Having read this book, I can now see that my hunch was on the right lines.Kenneth Noye some years earlier had been acquitted of the murder of a Police officer which is covered in this book and now apparently, only 2 years out of prison for a handling charge related to the Brinks job, Noye, was now a man of interest again.The investigating officer Nick Biddiss in the Cameron case, later met Kenneth Noye now out of prison again where they both appeared on camera in a discussion where the former Detective stated that Noye was not inherently violent and indeed, in Noye's time in prison he was a model prisoner.A friend of the late Frankie Fraser whom he communicated with whilst on the run, Noye also shared a prison reform story with Fraser.Fraser objected to prison labour for pointless tasks such as flint napping where the day's work of breaking off small pieces of flint which were just discarded by the Warders at the end of the day, led to the prison regime being changed for the better. Noye objected to the intrusive special security regime in Belmarsh prison and that was changed, Noye being in solitary confinement was subject to a level of security and 'oversight' that you might find in an oppressive totalitarian political regime.I won't spoil the book for you but the book does reveal at the end some questions that may likely never be answered - they are of a murky world that remains so still.I am sure that after reading this you will know more of the man who is Kenneth Noye a lot better and a picture of him somewhat removed from the popular media image portrayed of him.

Seems a good read

Not sure I would have given Noye as much credit or sucker for his actions considering he brutally murdered two men, one of them a policeman. I hope he dies a painful and lingering death.
