Table of ContentsReviewsAuthor InformationLeslie Watkins' diversity of assignments as a veteran Fleet Street journalist ranged from being Father Christmas at London's Selfridge's store to patrolling Belfast's blood-stained streets with armed troops during The Troubles. That is reflected in the authenticity evident in his novels such as The Killing of Idi Amin -- partly based on his harsh imprisonment during the maniacal dictator's reign of terror in Uganda. His interest in sleepwalking violence was sparked when he covered the case of an American airman found not guilty of strangling a British girl to death. He has also drawn on his extensive dealings with politicians including former UK Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher - for whom he had a high regard - and on his in-depth interviews with former 'patients' in Russia's notorious prison-hospitals for his best-selling Alternative 3 as well as for his recently-published political warfare thriller The Unexploded Man.
