Chris’s latest book, “Call Sign Chopper – The Sequel”

Chris reading his poetry in September 2023 (approx 3 minutes)

In ‘Call Sign Chopper-The Sequel’, we join Chris in his “adventure years”; which starts in Kenya after a chance encounter with two veterinary surgeons. A short time later an unexpected twist lands him in war-torn Kurdistan, Northern Iraq.

After a crazy few years, Chris returns to the UK and works providing security at music festivals and nightclubs while tackling international maritime missions. But the beat of voodoo drums beckons once more, leading to heart-pounding, life-threatening escapades back in Haiti.

15 months later, we join Chris on his anti-piracy missions in the Indian Ocean, facing off against ruthless Somali pirates.

His adventures take a humanitarian turn with work in Libya, France, grim mortuary work in post-tsunami Thailand; the Grenfell Tower disaster in London and building eco-friendly homes for AIDS orphans in Zimbabwe.

Once again, we find Chris back in the UK working security for various events and music festivals. Now in his mid-60s, and due to one (surprising) close encounter, he realises his adventures have reached an end… or have they?

Chris’s first book – “Call Sign Chopper”

It’s 1963. 13-year-old Chris watches ‘Doctor No’ and dreams of emulating his hero, James Bond, 007.

Two years later Chris’ world is shattered when the father he idolises deserts the family leaving him to help support his mother and younger brother. He quits school with no qualifications but miraculously finds a job as a clerical assistant with the Ministry of Defence, hoping that Martinis and Aston Martins, will soon follow.

Chris quickly realises however, that clerical assistants never get to be secret agents.

One evening, a chat with a local copper convinces Chris to join the police. Twenty-six years of active service follow until his career is cut short by a car accident which leaves him with a broken neck. Medically discharged from the police but still longing for adventurous work, he takes a job as a bouncer.

City centre violence is becoming headline news, and the BBC comes calling looking for bouncers like Chris to star in a new documentary series called, ‘Muscle’.

While filming ‘Muscle’ he’s sent to LA to train as a weapons-carrying bodyguard. Impressed by his skills, the organisation invites him to join an elite team of mercenaries tasked with keeping the president of the impoverished Republic of Haiti in power.

Follow Chris’s remarkable journey from the streets of Bristol to the land of Voodoo, violent revolution and the ever-present spectre of death.

“Call Sign Chopper has the ring of authenticity about it. It’s the precise little things, like When Chris Nott says of a burned body, “all I knew for sure was that they had been wearing boots.” I was with Chris in Haiti. It was a different day but I can still remember with crystal clarity that one fly buzzing around a body and the rest, landed and feasting on the blood.”
