Description

Tony Long's life as a police marksman was marked by intense danger and controversy. For 25 years, he operated in the Met's elite specialist firearms units, deploying on hundreds of high-risk operations to bring down terrorists, killers, and hostage takers. His duty often meant making split-second decisions with lethal force, leaving a lasting impact on his career and personal life. The death of Azelle Rodney, a suspected armed robber and drug dealer, proved to be the turning point in Tony's story. Tried for murder, he faced a devastating outcome that shook him to his core. This intense and thought-provoking account raises serious questions about the responsibility that comes with risking one's life to protect others. A gripping and unflinching look at the complexities of policing and the human cost of duty, Tony Long's story is a sobering reminder of the difficult choices made in the line of duty.
