From The Inside
The Confessions of Mark Brandon Read

The editors
In early 1991 investigative journalist John Silvester interviewed Mark Brandon
Read in Pentridge Prison's top security H Division for a series of reports in the
Herald-Sun. Over the next eight months Read wrote Silvester more than 300
letters which are the basis of this book.
Silvester has been a Melbourne-based crime reporter since 1978. In 1990 he
worked for the Sunday Times Insight team in London. He is co-author of Inside
Victoria: A Chronicle of Scandal with Bob Bottom.
Andrew Rule is a former chief police reporter for The Age, feature writer for The
Herald and television documentary producer. He is currently a sub-editor with the
Herald-Sun, author and publisher. His previous works include Cuckoo, the best-
selling factual account of the 'Mr Stinky' murder investigation.
Apart from Irish whiskey, good cigars, Pontiac motor cars, and a pistol grip baby
.410 shotgun with solid load shells, what I love the most is kidnapping smartarse
gangsters and taking their money. To the human filth I have bashed, belted, iron
barred, axed, shot, stabbed knee capped, set on fire and driven to their graves lean
only quote from the motto of the French Foreign Legion 'Je Ne Regrette Rien'. . . I
REGRET NOTHING
