In a world where loyalty is currency and betrayal demands blood, Karl English rules the underworld with cold calculation and a crooked grin. From back alley jewellery heists to transnational smuggling rings, his empire stretches from the shadows of Newcastle to the glittering coasts of Spain and beyond. Alongside his brother-in-arms Dale and a crew of misfits, Tipsy the lockpicker, Angus the muscle, Donald the fixer, and Nettie the quiet conscience, Karl builds a criminal network fuelled by violence, strategy, and unforgiving discipline. But when a stash of drugs and gold is uncovered during a petty burglary, the stakes spiral into deadly territory. As tensions mount, alliances fray, and one betrayal sets off a chain of ruthless reckonings, the crew must decide: stay loyal or stay breathing. Ragdoll Criminal is a dark, unflinching dive into the brutal mechanics of organised crime, where honour is a myth, power is a weapon, and survival means trusting no one... not even family.
