Travis' father was a failed soldier, a coward and a heartless bully
who tried to disown his son. Now Travis is determined to shame him
by becoming the soldier his father could never have been - through
joining the Parachute Regiment, the elite of the British Army. His
restless urge to prove himself takes him from country to country
and from army to army, where he battles with enemies both external
and internal until he is finally able to put horror and tragedy
behind him and find honour, love and peace. 'The sounds of the
battle were like some crazy symphony, orchestrated by a mad
composer and led by an even madder conductor who had decided to
play all his heavy brass instruments at the same time and all of
his percussion, bass drums pounding amid the deafening clashes of
cymbals. His instruments were automatic rifle fire, hand grenades,
grenade launchers, claymore mines, light and heavy machine guns and
mortars. For vocals he had the screams of the wounded and dying.'
'A killer story, with a strong emotional core, powerful themes that
will touch hearts and a believable protagonist' - Kaye Jones,
