A laughoutloud memoir by Parachute Regiment and 22 SAS veteran John Wick the man who helped break the story of the 2009 MPs Expenses Scandal. Have you ever wondered how to conduct a ransom negotiation? Would you know what to do if you accidentally found yourself in a room full of Columbian drug barons? How would you feel if you were hurtling towards the ground beneath a partiallyinflated parachute? Would you panic if you were threatened with imprisonment by the Speaker of the House of Commons? These are only a few of the dilemmas faced by John during 60 years of adventures, in both Army and civilian life, which at times left him perilously close to having a rendezvous with the Grim Reaper. This is a book about family, friendship, travel and, above all, Johns enduring resilience in the face of adversity. It ends in 2009 with the MPs Expenses Scandal, which rocked the nation and destroyed the careers of many Members of Parliament. Who can forget the revelations of wrongdoing that filled the pages of The Daily Telegraph newspaper that Spring? Without John Wicks courage and determination to do the right thing, at a risk to his own safety, the truth might have remained hidden from public scrutiny forever.
