Making A Killing: The Explosive Story of a Hired Gun in Iraq

Making a Killing is the firsthand account of a private security contractor working in Iraq during the height of the post-2003 conflict, offering a candid look at the pressures, risks and moral complexities of the job. The author describes the realities of operating in a volatile environment, from convoy protection and high-stress decision-making to the strain placed on those living and working far from home. The narrative focuses on personal experience, professional challenges and the human cost of conflict rather than technical or operational detail. A compelling title for readers of modern-war memoirs and collectors of contemporary military-history narratives.
