It takes a tough mindset to be a successful sniper, to be able to dig in for days on your own as you wait for your target, to stay calm on a battlefield when you yourself have become the target the enemy most want to take out. Craig Harrison has what it takes and in November 2009 in Afghanistan, under intense pressure, he saved the lives of his comrades with the longest confirmed sniper kill - 2,475 metres, the length of 25 football pitches.
In this action-packed, vivid memoir Craig takes us from a touch childhood to joining the army at 16, from serving in Bosnia through two tours of Iraq and Afghanistan. He describes the numerous campaigns he's taken part in and his special ops missions. He also reveals how injury forced him to leave the army and how, after his identity was revealed, Al Qaeda threatened him and his family. For Craig, the price of heroism has been devastatingly high.
