'The most authentic special forces book I have read. And like real life itself, the plot never turns out as you would want or expect.' - Colonel Tim Collins. Former SAS officer
'An authentic account of the bloodthirsty Bosnian and second Gulf wars. Scott Leigh writes compellingly and joins the dots between the conflicts. Doesn't pull punches and clearly knows his stuff. Leigh brings to life through a page turning narrative, the subtleties and tensions within Al Qaeda and the Allied coalition, between Sunni and Shia, local and foreign fighters, Americans and Brits, Special Forces and intelligence operatives... He does that with humour and sympathy for the human beings caught up in these ghastly wars.' - Nicholas Hopton, former British Ambassador to Iran
In 1993, Barbara Bishop was a young, ambitious intelligence officer, honing her skills amidst the chaos of the Bosnian Civil War. But a single, life-changing event would forever alter her path. Ten years later, now more seasoned but still haunted by her past, Barbara finds herself in post-invasion Iraq, chasing an elusive Al-Qaeda insurgent known as “Juba the Baghdad Sniper.”
Teaming up with Eric Scott-Douglas, a colleague from her Bosnia days, who is now at Defence Intelligence in London, Barbara begins to unravel the intricate web leading to her target. With the most advanced intelligence-gathering apparatus at her disposal, and a British SAS troop ready for action, she meticulously hunts Juba through Baghdad's Triangle of Death, navigating one of the most dangerous battlegrounds on Earth.
As the pieces fall into place, Barbara makes a chilling discovery: Juba is no mere sniper. A high-ranking Al-Qaeda leader, he is also a shadow from her past—her nemesis from Bosnia. What began as a mission of duty has now become a deeply personal quest for revenge.
This gripping thriller brings back the Boss, Barnes and the crack team from Scott Leigh's sensational debut novel, Closer to Paradise.

'This is fiction but it reads like fact - and captures what it feels like, smells like and is like on real world operations - a very good read' - Lt General Sir Graeme Lamb, former Deputy Commanding General, Multinational Force, Iraq
