This is a work of narrative non-fiction based on the last days of the fugitive Raoul Moat, a Geordie bodybuilder and mechanic who became nationally notorious in Britain one hot summer's week when, after killing his ex-girlfriend's new lover, shooting her in the stomach, and blinding a policeman, he disappeared into the woods of Northumberland, evading discovery for seven days - even when TV tracker Ray Mears was employed by the police to find him. Eventually, cornered by the police, Moat shot himself. Here, Andrew Hankinson tells Moat's story in the second person, which means that the reader is uncomfortably close at all times to Raoul Moat.
