STEEL FEAR
STEEL FEAR is an enthralling new novel from the bestselling writing duo, award winning author John David Mann and former Navy SEAL Brandon Webb.
STEEL FEAR is a thrilling locked-room mystery, only the "room" in this case is the USS Abraham Lincoln - a 90,000-ton aircraft carrier in the middle of the Pacific Ocean with six thousand souls on board. It's already been a long deployment for the crew and when they start disappearing one by one, what at first seems like a string of unfortunate circumstances slowly reveals itself to be something much more sinister. There's a killer in their midst, and the one best suited to find him is a disgraced Navy SEAL recently recalled from the field under a cloud of suspicion for war crimes. Which also makes him the likeliest suspect.
Lovers of both serial killer thrillers and military novels will be turning pages late into the night as they're drawn deeper and deeper into this unique, suspenseful and authentically detailed game of cat and mouse. And it's no wonder: author Brandon Webb, did two tours on an aircraft carrier, much like our book's SEAL protagonist. During his deployment, there was a rash of crimes with which the crew was ill-equipped to deal. Brandon couldn't help but be inspired to wonder, "What if they were murders?"
STEEL FEAR is an absorbing thriller with a compelling cast of characters for which it has already received strong interest for film and TV adaptations, and the authors anticipate selling the screen rights quickly.
It took twenty-five years and a writing partnership with John to bring that idea to the page. Though this is their first novel, STEEL FEAR is the seventh book Webb and Mann have written together in their decade long partnership which began with their 2009 New York Times bestselling memoir, THE RED CIRCLE, and has continued with a string of commercially successful, internationally published non-fiction books- it's a natural next step to build on their already enviable track record and platform. Webb is regularly featured in international media as a military and Special Operations subject matter expert and has contributed to ABC, NBC, FOX, CNN, BBC, SIRIUS XM, The New York Times, The New York Post, MSNBC, Good Morning America and The Today Show.
