A gripping true story from Britain´s Most Wanted Man after two decades on the run in America
9.30am on 22 January 1993. The moment in crime history that one of Britain´s most audacious thefts ever took place and the legend of ´Fast Eddie´ was created.
This is the story of how Securicor guard Eddie Maher managed to pull off a Pds. 1.2 million heist, fled the country despite every port being closed, spawned an international manhunt, and managed to evade capture for 20 years. As Britain´s Most Wanted Man, he led 30 detectives, FBI and Interpol on a wild goose chase across the USA.
Dubbed ´Fast Eddie´ by the press, he was always one step ahead and after two decades on the run with his family using a series of of aliases and identities, Eddie began to think he´d committed the perfect crime until a cruel and dramatic betrayal proved otherwise...
Like a Hollywood movie script and told in full for the first time, Fast Eddie is the compelling story of how an ordinary British man became America´s most notorious fugitive.
