'Put on your seatbelt before reading this. Dean Yates has produced the roughest, and most honest, journalistic memoir of war I've ever encountered' --Thomas Ricks, author, Fiasco: The American Military Adventure in Iraq

'Destined to become a classic' --Chris Hedges, Pulitzer-prize winning war correspondent for the New York Times

Dean Yates was the ideal warzone correspondent: courageous, compassionate, dedicated. After years of facing the worst, though, including the Bali bombings and the Boxing Day tsunami, one final incident undid him. In July 2007, two of his staff members were brutally gunned down by an American helicopter in Iraq.

What followed was an unraveling of everything Dean thought he knew of himself. His PTSD was compounded by his moral wound - the devastation of what he thought he knew of the world and his own character and beliefs. After years of treatment, including several stints inside a psychiatric facility, Dean has reshaped his view of the true meaning of life. Here, in all its guts and glory, is that journey to a better way of being. Dean has been to the blackest heart of humanity and come out with strength and hope.

Line in the Sand is a memoir that is going to resonate for generations to come. It tackles the most important topic of our age in an unforgettable way.
