Former British Paratrooper Simon Chambers has lived for the excitement of soldiering. After 22 years' service in Her Majesty's Armed Forces, driving lorries for a living just doesn't cut it. Looking for adventure, he sets out for the USA on a quest to join the ruthless world of the private security 'contractor', and after training with the Blackwater military defence company in North Carolina Simon is sent to Iraq. This is the riveting true story of the first British soldier to join the infamous Blackwater: the story of a man paid money to put his life on the line each and every day - no questions asked!
