Tears Of a tiger is a non-fiction book

Tears Of a tiger is a non-fiction book

June 2010:

The above answer is INCORRECT! I have searched many sites and even on Sharon Draper's website (the author) she states that "Tears of a Tiger" along with the rest of the Hazlewood Triology are all FICTION meaning not true. Yes, events like these do occur and could but these stories as told by Sharon Draper are not true there for the book are fictional, juvienlle fictional to be exact! Thanks hope this helps!

Yes it is a true story it happend to a Canadian (JTF2) special forces agent on border between Colombia and Venezuela...Not a lot of people know that but its true. His name is Denis Morisset and he wrote his auto-biography wich was originally in french but it is also available in english. The real story was pretty much the same than the story in the film exept that it was Canadians instead of Americans and it happend in South America instead of Africa.

YES! It is very accurate...There was a joint SOF between Canada and the USA in Colombia in the late 90's. LT. A.K Waters is a real person..as well as ZEE, RED, and FLEA.
