| Sniper One by Sergeant Dan Mills |
 |
 In April 2004, Sgt Dan Mills and his platoon of snipers flew into southern Iraq as part of an infantry battalion sent to win hearts and minds. Back home we were told they were peace keeping but within days of arriving, they were caught up in the longest, most sustained firefight British troops had faced for over fifty years.
'The book they tried to ban... The most vivid account ever of total combat on Iraq's frontline' The Sun.
'A highly charged, action-filled, adrenalin-pumped, page-turning read that, frankly, knocks the socks off all previous British accounts' Sunday Telegraph. |

| Operation Certain Death by Damien Lewis |
 |
 In 1999, 11 British soldiers on a peace keeping mission in Sierra Leone, West Africa, ventured down the wrong jungle path in their Land Rovers and were taken hostage by the notoriously brutal and sadistic rebel group known as the West Side Boys. The soldiers were kept in horrific conditions for 17 days never knowing if they'd be free again. Operation Certain Death tell the stunning story of how just 75 SAS and SBS took on over 1,000 rebels in their heavily defended base to rescue the soldiers in what was to became the SAS's greatest battle.
'What a story!, As good as any thriller I have ever read. This is the lowdown' Frederick Forsyth.
'A riveting account of events. A story of courage, professionalism and high drama which has previously remained untold. I was unable to put it down' Michael Grunberg, Sandline. |
