About this listen

An aircraft carrier adrift with a crew the size of a small town. A killer in their midst. And the disgraced Navy SEAL who must track him down . . . The high-octane debut thriller from New York Times bestselling writing team Webb & Mann—combat-decorated Navy SEAL Brandon Webb and award-winning author John David Mann.

A BARRY AWARD NOMINEE“Sensationally good—an instant classic, maybe an instant legend.”—Lee Child

The moment Navy SEAL sniper Finn sets foot on the USS Abraham Lincolnto hitch a ride home from the Persian Gulf, it’s clear something is deeply wrong. Leadership is weak. Morale is low. And when crew members start disappearing one by one, what at first seems like a random string of suicides soon reveals something far more sinister: There’s a serial killer on board. Suspicion falls on Finn, the newcomer to the ship. After all, he’s being sent home in disgrace, recalled from the field under the dark cloud of a mission gone horribly wrong. He’s also a lone wolf, haunted by gaps in his memory and the elusive sense that something he missed may have contributed to civilian deaths on his last assignment. Finding the killer offers a chance at redemption . . . if he can stay alive long enough to prove it isn’t him.

“Sensationally good — an instant classic, maybe an instant legend. Steel Fear takes all the strengths of a traditional thriller and makes them as modern as tomorrow.” (Number one New York Times best-selling author Lee Child)

“An absolutely amazing thriller! Steel Fear comes in hot and never slows down. Exciting, action-packed, and twisty from stem to stern. This will be one of the hottest books of the summer!” (Number one New York Times best-selling author Brad Thor)

Steel Fear is deadly good, a five-star scorcher from first page to last. The enigmatic and mysterious Finn is the next big thriller superstar.” (Number one New York Times best-selling author Robert Crais)

Great characters and engaging storyline

I’ve enjoyed all of Webb’s non fiction books and his foray into fiction did not disappoint. I’m looking forward to going through the rest of the series

Great for a first time author- more a murder thriller than a war novel

Character development is great with a very compelling plot. I listen to a lot of SEAL/war oriented action and murder mystery thrillers. This is more of the latter with a Naval setting, but really enjoyable thriller. Narration was very good. Hope his others are just as good.

A smart, captivating, and haunting story that pulls you in tight for a straight through listen.

Wow! This is the best thriller I’ve read in a while. If you enjoy trying to figure out who did it, you will enjoy this one. The vivid descriptions of the characters and actions pulled me in early and I listened to the entire book in one session. The narrator was excellent as well and elevated the drama with his delivery.

Seal aboard

Liked the plot line, although it took a long time to develop the story line. It was dozens of chapters before the characters even knew a murder had occurred. And I felt like they took the obvious pc route at the end but overall it was a good story, especially if you enjoy the military and a mystery.
