<p><b>The astonishing true story of Glasgow gangland confidant James McIntyre, aka Jimmy Two Guns</b><br><br>James 'Jimmy Two Guns' McIntyre was Glasgow's go-to <b>gangland lawyer</b> and consigliere to one of Scotland's foremost crime families. His maverick approach to the law and <b>a client list that included some of the most feared gangland figures of the time - including </b><b>the McGoverns and Paul Ferris</b> - ensured that he was always in demand but under the constant scrutiny of the authorities.<br><br>Now Jimmy Two Guns recounts the cases he handled, the strokes he pulled, plus his arrests, a high-speed car chase with the drug squad, his time in 'the cooler' for allegedly attempting to murder a cop and much more. He tells how he bounced back after being the target of a near-fatal underworld hit, before being arrested by an armed response unit for possession of two pistols, and reveals with wit and a sharp pen what it's really like being a lawyer for the underdog.<br><br><b>Whatever you thought you knew about crime and justice, think again - because for Jimmy Two Guns, the truth has always been stranger than fiction.</b><br><br><b>'Crooked judges, bent cops and hypocrites in high places - the most truthful legal memoir you'll ever read. Superb.'</b><br>Matthew Hall, bestselling novelist and BAFTA-winning screenwriter of <i>Keeping Faith</i><br><br><b>'James McIntyre was a legal barracuda swimming both sides of the line; this memoir is his modus operandi.'</b><br>G.F. Newman, creator of <i>Law &amp; Order</i> and <i>Judge John Deed</i></p>
