The Bedford Heist is based on a leading Prison Counsellor who after 20 plus years tires of dealing with Britain’s problems, changes sides and pulls off a deadly but clever heist bringing the market town of Bedford to its knees. Over the years, he had seen good and bad laws passed by both the Labour and the Conservative parties, and even when a party had a huge majority of MPs, they still didn’t make significant changes to how the country was being run. The rich continued to get richer, and the poor get poorer, and essential matters such as the NHS, education and public protection never got any better. The Bedford Heist target readership would be.... People who live-in or around Bedford. Prison Officers. detainees or their family or anyone who is tired of seeing Britain going downhill.
