When ruthless drug baron John Haase was sentenced to 18 years imprisonment for heroin-trafficking in 1995, it was a major victory for customs and the police. But in a shocking move, after Haase and his partner Paul Bennett had served only 11 months, then Home Secretary Michael Howard signed a Royal Pardon for their release; defending his decision by claiming that Haase and Bennett had become invaluable informants.

Included is the story of how Haase had in fact duped the authorities, and far from being forced into hiding as an informant, he had gained new kudos among the criminal underworld for so audaciously beating the system.
