Join us as we relive the terrifying events of October 3, 1993, when about a hundred elite U.S.

soldiers were dropped by helicopter into the teeming market in Mogadishu, Somalia.

Their mission was to abduct two top lieutenants of a Somali warlord and return to base.

But things didn't go as planned.

Instead, they found themselves pinned down through a long and terrible night fighting against thousands of heavily-armed Somalis. By the time the sun rose the next morning, 18 Americans were dead and more than 70 had been badly wounded.

It was a tragic and devastating loss of life that will leave you on the edge of your seat.

But don't just take our word for it - read the book and experience the action for yourself!
