We are sad to announce that Leonard "Nipper" Read QPM died this morning aged 95. A Met legend, he is best known for his part in bringing the Kray Twins to justice and his autobiographies hold places of honour in our collections. #RIP #Nipper #NipperRead #coronavirusuk #legend pic.twitter.com/IeaJYKx9RX
