Man On Fire
A.J. Quinnell
This is the novel that inspired the movie of the same name.
Synopsis:
An American soldier of fortune far from home -- alcoholic, burnt out, and
broken down -- Creasy has accepted a job as a bodyguard just for something
to
do. An emotionally dead, one-time warrior, he knows that nothing can pierce
the hard shell he's built around himself -- until the little girl he's been
hired to protect somehow breaks through. But having something to care about
again is making Creasy vulnerable. And when the unthinkable occurs, a man on
fire won't just burn ... he'll explode.
