The breathtaking new thriller from the bestselling author of Bravo Two Zero.
Andy McNab (Author)
From the day he was found in a carrier bag on the steps of Guy's
Hospital in London, Andy McNab has led an extraordinary life.
As a teenage delinquent, Andy McNab kicked against society. As a
young soldier he waged war against the IRA in the streets and
fields of South Armagh. As a member of 22 SAS he was at the centre
of covert operations for nine years - on five continents. During
the Gulf War he commanded Bravo Two Zero, a patrol that, in the
words of his commanding officer, 'will remain in regimental history
for ever'. Awarded both the Distinguished Conduct Medal (DCM) and
Military Medal (MM) during his military career, McNab was the
British Army's most highly decorated serving soldier when he
finally left the SAS.
Since then Andy McNab has become one of the world's best-selling
writers, drawing on his insider knowledge and experience. As well
as several non-fiction bestsellers including Bravo Two Zero, the
biggest selling British work of military history, he is the author
of the best-selling Nick Stone and Tom Buckingham thrillers. He has
also written a number of books for children.
Besides his writing work, he lectures to security and intelligence
agencies in both the USA and UK, works in the film industry
advising Hollywood on everything from covert procedure to training
civilian actors to act like soldiers. He continues to be a
spokesperson and fundraiser for both military and literacy
charities.
