"Warrior" is the powerful true story of a British soldier's heroism during the lraq War and a shocking account of how he was ruthlessly sacrificed by the Establishment. During the 2003 invasion of Iraq, Captain Tam Henderson was in the thick of ferocious action in the chaos of Basra. After fighting to recover the body of one of his men, Tam was horrified when the chain gun on his Warrior Infantry Fighting Vehicle suddenly fired by itself, seriously injuring a comrade. He was told to take the rap but refused, insisting that the dangerous fault on the gun needed to be investigated. He was convicted by a kangaroo court at Saddam's palace and sent home in disgrace. But Tam fought back and embarked upon the biggest battle of his life - against the Ministry of Defence and international arms companies. Pacy and starkly authentic, "Warrior" takes the reader on an exhilarating roller-coaster journey that is by turns horrific, humorous and poignantly reflective.
