On that night, the man had been on that hill and had seen the body hung up. Once the hangman and his assistant had left, the hung body began to groan. At the same time an old man appeared, the father of the criminal, and between the two of them they managed to save the young man from the gallows. But this is only the start of the dreadful events of the evening.

A British sniper is waiting in a shell-hole in no-mans land for his enemy. It is a battle of wits...the game of no mistakes. It takes the instinct of a hunter after a bear to spot the imperceptible movement, the chink of light and shift in the mud that reveals the movement of his enemy. A tense tale in which we sit alongside the sniper, watching with him as he waits to shoot his enemy.
