LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS

ac_wedding.jpgThe Truth About Mal,
Kenny and Me

£16.00, 320 pages


FORMER motorcycling GP winner Alan Carter - Kenny Carter's kid brother - reveals all about one of speedway's most controversial characters.

ac_party.jpgRead . . .

*Alan's intimate and heartrending account of the series of tragedies that have haunted him all his life - the death of his and Kenny's youngest brother, the suicide of their paralysed mother, the shock double shooting that ended the lives of Kenny and his wife Pam, and the sad death of his own baby daughter that left him an emotional wreck.

*What Kenny was really like away from the track.

ac_pharoah.jpg*What Alan thinks of Bruce Penhall and Kenny's bitter on-track rivalry with the American idol, and the ruthless tactics that have always divided opinion.

*The overbearing influence of their father, Mal Carter, and his role in his sons' careers and their troubled lives.

*See the Carters like you've never seen them before, thanks to exclusive, previously un-seen photos from the family archives.
Includes more than 200 pictures.

ac_kc_kid.jpgAn extraordinary story of human experiences like no other, this is one book you won't be able to put down.

The foreword has been written by former road-racing star and now Eurosport TV commentator James Whitham.

"Heartbreakingly honest,  a dark journey into fame and fortune's flip side."
RICHARD CLARK, Editor, Speedway Star.

"Wow! A great read. You never know how good you had it until you read what this family was all about."
BRUCE PENHALL, 1981 & 1982 world speedway champion.
