520    John 'Goldfinger' Palmer was a multi-millionaire kingpin 
       of the British underworld, who would go on to mastermind a
       criminal empire to dwarf any crook of his generation. 
       Palmer hit the big time in 1983 with the Brink's-Mat gold 
       bullion raid, netting £500 million in today's money for 
       himself and Kenneth Noye - the biggest heist in UK 
       criminal history at the time. While murders and lethal 
       accidents befell at least 20 accomplices and police 
       officers connected to the raid, Palmer somehow remained 
       unscathed. His luck finally ran out on 24 June 2015 when 
       he was shot six times by an assassin. The killer remains 
       unknown and, until now, so too did most of Palmer's 
       secrets. Few gangsters have attracted as many newspaper 
       column inches in recent decades, but only one woman saw it
       all from the start and lives to tell the tale. In 
       Goldfinger and Me, his wife Marnie lifts the lid on 
       Palmer's rise from a deprived childhood in Birmingham to a
       life of yachts, private jets, helicopters, fast cars, 
       cocaine addiction and infidelity. His criminal exploits in
       Tenerife as well as his links to the Hatton Garden 
       jewellery heist are also laid bare in this explosive book.
