But when an interview goes wrong and he's ambushed on a lonely road in Iraq, questions are asked. Was it a set-up?

Recensioner i media

'Ben Brown has written a powerful novel set against the brutal backdrop of modern war. It is a gripping journey, both thriller and love story, whose real theme is the struggle for tenderness in the face of cruelty.' Fergal Keane 'Ben Brown has brought his years of experience as Britain's best front-line correspondent to the writing of this novel, and it contains all the excitement and speed and understanding of the world he knows so well. He writes beautifully and convincingly and with great pace, and his characters, some of them very disturbing, come alive as you read. This is an excellent novel, and I recommend it highly.' John Simpson 'If his narrative rings so true and reads so vividly, it is because Ben Brown writes as he lives - as someone who has witnessed events most of us dare not even imagine'. Emily Maitlis
