About the Book

Come with me as we take a revealing look inside the world of the private security industry. Discover what it is like to oversee a busy nightclub, look after celebrities and work with the hard men, gangsters, criminals and clubbers. I took up martial arts many years ago to try to overcome my fears and become this person who was afraid of nothing. I became a bouncer to see if it worked. I never stopped being afraid, but I did learn a lot about life and myself. Have you ever wondered what it takes to run a door? Where you ever curious what working in security is really like? Ever thought about what sort of person takes on the job? Maybe you are that person? This is not a story of a "hard man". The pages are not full of bloodstained tales regaling the reader of the time I took on 20 Hell's Angels single handed or fought off the local drug gang using only my trusty SIA badge and a club stamp. Yes, there is violence in this book. Violence unfortunately goes with the job, but there is also beauty, humour, camaraderie, friendship and much more. So please give a thought to the big ugly lump stood on the door the next time you are passing. We are not uneducated thugs. We are people, people who keep you and your loved ones safe at night. People who run towards while everyone else is running away. People who will save your kids from themselves while they get so wasted on drink and drugs that they can't remember their own name. Without us clubland would be a very different place. I have worked almost every role from bouncer to bodyguard. I have stood on the door of pubs and clubs, gone undercover at festivals, looked after royalty and everything in between. I hold multiple black belts. I am a world champion gold, silver and bronze medallist and been inducted into the hall of fame. I teach self-defence to schools and businesses, deliver the SIA approved training required to get your license and run a full-time martial arts gym. Does this make me an expert? No, but it does make for some interesting stories. If you want to work in the industry or just understand it better or you have wondered what goes on behind the scenes at your favourite clubs and festivals, then open the cover and experience the world of the nightclub bouncer.

    A Thrilling But Totally Believable Murder Mystery

    Read this in one evening. I had planned to do other things with my day, but it was impossible to put down. Every time I tried, I was drawn back to it in less than 5 minutes. I sobbed my eyes out the entire last 100 pages. Highly recommend!
