Synopsis

For fifteen years, Jacquieline Davis survived as one of the top operators in a male-dominated profession: the secretive, often dangerous world of covert operations. With her first job, guarding an Arabian princess in a London hotel, the biggest enemy was boredom, but combat training — and a willingness to risk everything for "the client" — led the author to increasingly dangerous undercover operations: hostage rescues in Saudi Arabia and Pakistan, a daring infiltration of the Medellin cocaine cartel ... and more! First published by Penguin UK in 1998 and now updated with the author's new adventures guarding celebrities and rescuing childern and adults around the world, The Circuit is a fascinating account of Jacquie's experiences. Now, for the first time, The Circuit will be available to readers in the United States. Pre-publication copies will be available from this website June 1st, and The Circuit will be on the shelves of fine booksellers throughout the States as of October 1, 2003.
