Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. INSCRIPTION FROM MIKE MCINTYRE on ffep; Clean, tight, unmarked; light creasing to front and back bottom inside corners; otherwise very minimal wear; appears unread; In his 7-year crime spree, Syrnyk hit Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, and Winnipeg. He pulled 9 armoured car heists; 11 bank robberies, 8 break-ins; 1 hostage-taking; and shot 3 people, including a police officer. But Syrnyk continued to elude police; event public pleas for help and extensive media coverage backfired, until April 2002, when Syrnyk's crime spree exploded in a dramatic 12-hour stand-off and hostage-taking in a Winnipeg brothel. McIntyre takes you inside the criminal mind with exclusive jailhouse interviews, police reports and court documents. This is a chilling account of the transformation of a normal suburban kid into a sophisticated serial criminal. Inscribed by Author(s). Codice articolo 007279
