Six members of the Doyle family died horrendously at their home in Bankend Street, Glasgow, blazed on the night of 16 April 1984. The fire was deliberately set. Victims of the Ice-Cream Wars screamed the media. Public outrage ran fever-high.
The pressure was on the police to catch someone - anyone - and punish them for this atrocity. Every day scores of people were dragged off the streets for interview. Again and again the police suggested one name. TC Campbell. Again and again, they got nothing in return. Then one man traded a lie in exchange for immunity. Nothing much, just an overheard conversation. Not much but it would do.
On 10 October 1994, TC Campbell and Joe Steele were found guilty of the murders of the Doyle family. Writing from his cell in Shotts Prison, this is Campbell's frank story of why he was chosen, how he was convicted, and his struggle for justice.
The police stations screamed TC Campbell. The folk on the streets muttered another name. You make your mind up.
