The author had a previous career in the SAS and this book gives an interesting insight into his new career of professional bodyguard. It is well written and informative and had a few touches of humour amid the tension. Thanks to Net Galley for my copy. I reviewed on Amazon and Goodreads

Well written and enjoyable read. The author has had an interesting life and the stories make good reading.
