Visceral and compelling, Eight Lives Down is the most exciting and
nerve-jangling work of military non-fiction since Bravo Two Zero.
If fate is against me and I'm killed, so be it, but make it quick
and painless. If I'm wounded, don't let me be crippled. But above
all, don't let me fuck up the task.
So goes the bomb technician's prayer before every bomb he defuses.
For Chris Hunter, it is a prayer he says many times during his
four-month tour of Iraq. His is the most dangerous job in the world
-- to make safe the British sector in Iraq against some of the most
hardened and technically advanced terrorists in the world. It is a
24/7 job -- in the first two months alone, his team defuses over 45
bombs. And the people they're up against don't play by the Geneva
Convention. For them, there are no rules, only results -- death by
any means necessary.
The job of a Bomb Disposal officer is a lonely one. You are alone
with the sound of your own breathing and the drumming of your heart
in a protective suit in forty-plus degrees of heat. The drawbridge
has been pulled up behind you as you advance on your goal. It's
just you and the bomb.
But for Chris Hunter, just when life couldn't get any more
dangerous, the stakes are raised again. From the Hardcover edition.
