This is a true story that stretches the boundaries of believability nearly to the breaking point. If you have ever wondered what it would be like to be a police officer in rural America or struggled to comprehend why the continent of Africa always seems to be in the midst of violent revolution, corruption and poverty, this book will fill those gaps in your experience. The author traveled to Liberia, West Africa after his police career ended to run US Embassy security operations and quickly found himself engulfed in a bloody civil war that exposed him to horrors that the average person may find totally incomprehensible. Nothing in his previous career had prepared him for what he experienced and his survival required every ounce of creativity and adaptability he could summon.
