Publisher's summary

Few outside the security services have heard of 14 Company. As deadly as the SAS yet more secret, the operators of 14 Company are Britain's most effective weapon against international terrorism. For every bomb that goes off, 14 Company prevent 12. The selection process is the most physically, intellectually, and emotionally demanding anywhere in the world. This is the true story of one operator and of some of the most hair-raising military operations ever conducted on the streets of Britain.

Great story

I can’t help but be thankful for all those who prevented loss of life in Northern Ireland.

I found the performance at times awful, the accents were are times embarrassingly poor.

Saying that I did enjoy the story.

Great Listen

I've never experienced any ops close to this but I have been in the forces. The author has done a brilliant job of depicting what complex missions sound like over the radio. Highly recommend.

Terrible narration & too much information

The narration was terrible! Scent kept shifting from posh English officer to terrible regional accents! Could not carry any regional English or Irish accents.
The content had way to much information. Having worked in the intelligence community the author shares too much information on training and procedures.
