This is the story of the real bodyguard, Lee Sansum, ex-Royal
Military Policeman, martial arts champion, and expert in close
protection. Part of Mohamed and Dodi Al-Fayed's protection team,
Lee had to guard the most famous woman in the world, Princess
Diana. He formed a close bond with Diana and the young princes,
particularly Harry, and it was only by a stroke of luck that he was
not in the car the night Diana died. That night proved to be the
turning point in his own life. Over the course of his career, Lee
has worked with the rich and famous, such as Hollywood stars Tom
& Nicole, Pele and Sylvester Stallone, and he gives a candid
account of what it's like to work in a job where lives are
literally at stake. Growing up in a tough part of Greater
Manchester, Lee learnt the hard way that to survive you need to
stand up to bullies and be harder than your opponent. A career in
the Royal Military Police took him to the "Bandit Country" of South
Armagh, where he pulled an AWOL squaddie out of a honey trap
moments before an IRA active service unit arrived to kill him. He
worked undercover in Northern Ireland and joined the SIB, the
Army's own internal affairs unit, before entering the world of
private security, operating in the world's hotspots, such as Libya
and the breakaway state of Somaliland. Lee's story is one of quiet
strength, of how reading a situation is invaluable to getting out
of trouble. It is one of achieving personal goals and overcoming
trauma through the help of his wife, Kate, and through his love of
martial arts. It is also a fitting tribute to one of the
outstanding figures of our age.
