Brought up in Glasgow's tough Shetteleston district, the author of this book was determined from an early age to become a soldier. Having joined the Parachute Regiment in 1960, he fought with the SAS in Aden and Borneo, and his career then became a seemingly obsessive quest for action and danger, taking him from Angola, where he fought as a mercenary, to service in the Rhodesian SAS and the South African Army, and finally to Colombia, where he attempted to assassinate drug baron Pablo Escobar. This is his story.
