From the Back Cover Praise for Andy McNab: 'Andy McNab knows where his strengths lie, and it's not just in his biceps . . . Only people who have not read this book could suggest that he is not a fine writer. It is a heart-thumping read.' Daily Express 'Addictive ... Packed with wild action and revealing tradecraft.'Daily Telegraph 'McNab is a terrific novelist. When it comes to thrills, he's Forsyth class.' Mail on Sunday 'McNab's great asset is that the heart of his fiction is non-fiction: other thriller writers do their research, but he has actually been there.' Sunday Times About the Author Andy McNab joined the infantry as a boy soldier. In 1984 he was 'badged' as a member of 22 SAS Regiment and was involved in both covert and overt special operations worldwide. 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 in February 1993. He wrote about his experiences in two phenomenal bestsellers, Bravo Two Zero, which was filmed in 1998 starring Sean Bean, and Immediate Action. He is the author of the bestselling novels, Remote Control, Crisis Four, Firewall, Last Light, Liberation Day and Dark Winter. Besides his writing work, he lectures to security and intelligence agencies in both the USA and UK.
