The book contrasts searing heat, cold fear, and overwhelming silence as the narrator confronts sophisticated bombmakers outside the Geneva Convention and relies on skill, vigilance, and determination.

There are so many of you across the sales, marketing and publication disciplines to whom I owe a huge debt of gratitude, but I would like to thank the following for their unstinting support: Katrina Whone, Rebecca Jones, Stephen Mulcahey, Phil Lord, Stina Smemo, Laura Sherlock, Dan Balado, Sophie Holmes, Janine Giovanni, Larry Finlay and Zoe Howes. Your encouragement and enthusiasm has made writing this book a thoroughly rewarding and edifying experience and I am grateful to you all.  \nMy special thanks go to Mark Lucas, my friend, mentor and literary agent. Your patience has been truly saint-like and you have shown me the perfect blend of encouragement and pressure necessary to allow me to get the book finished. For the hundreds of hours you spent working with me on Eight Lives Down, for your guidance and wisdom and for the email exchanges at three o’clock in the morning, I am hugely grateful. I am also indebted to your colleagues at LAW and in particular to Alice Saunders for her characteristic efficiency and her perpetually infectious enthusiasm. Working with you both has been an inimitably enjoyable experience.  \nI must also thank the Ministry of Defence for its invaluable advice and assistance, particularly those at the Directorate of Defence Public Relations (Army) and my former colleagues at the Defence Intelligence Staff and across the Ammunition Technical Officer community, who offered invaluable advice and provided the necessary checks and balances to ensure I didn’t inadvertently write something that could compromise the safety of our servicemen and women.  \nAdditionally I must thank my team, especially Mick and Dan for allowing me to tell their stories, as well as those who cannot be named for obvious reasons. You know who you are, and for your stoic professionalism and devotion to duty I have nothing but admiration for you all. Serving with you was the single most enjoyable experience of my career.  \nI will for ever be indebted to my mother. You started the race, and you were there to greet me at the finish line.
