Author: Eric Maddox

Format: Paperback

Number of Pages: 0


The full, behind-the-scenes account of the search for Saddam Hussein. In July 2003, Staff Sergeant Eric Maddox was deployed to Baghdad alongside intelligence analysts and fellow interrogators. Their assignment was clear: gather actionable intelligence - leads that could be used to launch raids on high-value targets within the insurgency. After months of chasing down leads, following hunches and interrogating literally hundreds of detainees, Maddox uncovered crucial details about the insurgency. In his final days in Iraq he closed in on the dictator's inner circle and, within hours of his departure from the country, pinpointed the precise location of Saddam's Tikrit spider hole. Maddox's candid and compelling narrative reveals the logic behind the unique interrogation process he developed, and provides an insider's look at his psychologically subtle, non-violent methods. The result is a gripping account of the historic mission that brought down Black List #1.
