3 096 Days" is the remarkable & shocking true account of the kidnap of Natascha Kampusch in 1998 who relives her traumatic experiences in this amazing true story. On 2 March 1998 ten-year-old Natascha Kampusch was snatched off the street by a stranger & bundled into a white van. Hours later she was lying on a cold cellar floor rolled up in a blanket. When she emerged from captivity in 2006 having endured one of the longest abductions in recent history her childhood had gone. In "3 096 Days" Natascha tells her amazing story for the first time: her difficult childhood what happened exactly on that fateful morning when she was on her way to school her long imprisonment in a five-square-metre dungeon & the physical & mental abuse she suffered from her abductor Wolfgang Priklopil
- who committed suicide by throwing himself under a train on the day she managed to make her escape. "3 096 Days" is ultimately a story about the triumph of the human spirit. It describes how in a situation of almost unbearable hopelessness she learned how to manipulate her captor. & how against inconceivable odds she managed to escape unbroken. "A brilliantly insightful dissection of her years in captivity". (Jon Ronson " Guardian"). " An excellent book". (Kathryn Hughes " Mail on Sunday"). " Unflinching & remarkably devoid of self-pity... Remarkable
- not just for Kampusch's account of her ordeal but as a testament to her indomitable spirit". (Daisy Goodwin " Sunday Times"). Natascha Kampusch was born on 17 February 1988 in Vienna & became victim at the age of ten to what proved to be one of the longest abductions in recent history. In 2006 she gained her freedom. On the day she escaped her abductor Wolfgang Priklopil committed suicide by throwing himself under a train. Since then Natascha has been trying to live a normal life.

When the Royal Marines Commandos returned to a chaotic Helmand in the winter of 2008 they realised that to stand any chance of success they would need to pursue an increasingly determined Taliban harder than ever before. This time they were going to hunt them down from the air. With the support of Chinooks Apaches Lynx Sea Kings & Harriers the Commandos became a deadly mobile unit able to swoop at a moments notice into the most hostile territory. From huge operations like the gruelling Red Dagger when 3 Commando Brigade fought in Somme-like mud to successfully clear the area around the capital of Helmand Lashkar Gar of encroaching enemy forces to the daily acts of unsupported close-quarters 360-degree combat & the breath-taking rapid helicopter night assaults behind enemy lines
- this was kind of battle that brought Commando qualities to the fore. As with the Sunday Times" bestselling "3 Commando Brigade" ex-Marine Lieutenant Colonel Ewen Southby-Tailyour brings unparalleled access to the troops a soldiers understanding of the conflict & a visceral sense of the combat experience. This is the real war in Helmand as told to him by a h&-picked band of young fellow marines as they encounter the daily rigours of life on the ground in the worlds most intense war zone."
