Tom Marcus, former MI5, grew up on the streets in the North of England. He joined the Army at sixteen and went on to became the youngest member of the Armed Forces to pass the 6-month selection process for Special Operations in Northern Ireland. He was hand picked from the Army into MI5 as a Surveillance Officer. He left the Security Service recently after a decade on the frontline protecting his country due to being diagnosed with PTSD. An extraordinary battle and recovery took place which led Tom to write his first book, Soldier Spy which has been vetted and cleared for publication by MI5, it's the first true ground level account ever to be told. The first time in the Security Services' history a Surveillance Officer has told the real story of the fight on our streets and his debut book went straight to Number 1 on the Sunday Times best sellers list and Number 1 on Amazon. Tom's new fiction series featuring Matt Logan starts in May 2018 with his first book; Capture or Kill. Tom, now consults on projects within TV and film including the TV dramatisation of his book Soldier Spy. Due to the ongoing specific threat to Tom Marcus, MI5 insist he keep his identity hidden and he continues to work with the Security Service and other agencies to ensure he stays safe. 'I want to tell the other side of the story. What operators are doing out there to stand between you and the most dangerous terrorists in the world. I won't give away any secrets, it's not what I'm about, everything I write or say has to be passed through Thames House first and I'll never betray the help and guidance the Service has shown me.' 'I might not be a genius or have a mega high IQ, nor do I have qualifications coming out of my ears, BUT I am a hunter of people, and I'm damn good at it.'
