Fergus Linnane combined a long career in journalism in London (he worked for the Mirror newspaper, among others) with a fascinated interest in the city's various underworlds. Since retiring as executive editor of the European five years ago, he has also written London's Underworld (published by Robson Books) and an encyclopedia of crime.
