Publisher's Summary
In the wake of his best-selling thriller Deadly Straits, which drew comparisons to Tom Clancy, Clive Cussler, and W.E.B. Griffin, newcomer R.E. McDermott is back with an action-packed sequel.
Dugan thought Somali pirates were bad news. Then it got worse.
As Tom Dugan and Alex Kairouz, his partner and best friend, struggle to ransom their ship and crew from murderous Somali pirates, things take a turn for the worse. A US Navy contracted tanker with a full load of jet fuel is also hijacked, not by garden variety pirates, but by terrorists with links to Al Qaeda, changing the playing field completely.
With a possible link between piracy and terrorism now in play, the US and British governments order the halt of all negotiations for captive ships, and enraged pirates ratchet up the mistreatment of the captive crews. When one of his crewmen is murdered in front of him on a live video feed, a frustrated Dugan takes matters into his own hands and starts his own rescue operation, only to stumble across something far more sinister - a rogue salvage operation for a long lost weapon of mass destruction. Isolated at sea on an old tanker previously destined for the ship breakers, Dugan and his hastily assembled little force of Russian mercenaries find themselves the last line of defense between the world and a terrifying bio-weapon.
Weaving historical fact with speculative fiction, Deadly Coast takes the listener from London board rooms into the very real world of modern day pirates - and their victims.

great action story and reading
Where does Deadly Coast rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I have listened to many and put this among the top 10 percent.
Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?
Yes. The risks involved and potential loss of key characters was plausible as was the overall premise behind the story.
Any additional comments?
This is a good series and I would like to see it continued.

Could Not Stop Listening
Would you listen to Deadly Coast again? Why?
Yes. It was a consistently flowing storyline that kept me involved in the book to the point of not wanting to stop listening and to discover the next twist of the plot.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Deadly Coast?
The ending of Deadly Coast, when the pirates were given the two tankers was most memorable to me. It was a perfect ending to the entire storyline.
What about Todd Haberkorn’s performance did you like?
I liked his ability to keep the storyline moving.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
YES! I could not stop listening to it or even go to sleep until I finished it.
Any additional comments?
Now having read both books, I am convinced that RE McDermott is capable of producing a far better book than Tom Clancy. His books are fast paced and have great plots and storylines. I can barely wait until the next book. I am hooked.

Exciting, thrilling that holds you attention
The author and narrator hooked me from the start with such danger and excitement. Tom and Kairouz are partner in a shipping company, their ship is over taken by terrorist group which is carrying much need fuel, what takes place next could mean life or death for so many people. The twists and turns keep you hooked from the start, just as you think things will work out something else sets off a new chain of events. It was has a few heart stopping moments, some cute times but the danger is real.
The narrator does an outstanding job holding your attention giving true emotions, wonderful character voices with excitement and danger you can feel. There are no background noises, no repeating of words, no volume changes just a true exciting listen. I enjoyed his normal voice it is very pleasant to listen to as he delivers wonderful character voice that take you away a thrilling listen on the high seas with pirates, ransoms, and a secret weapon which hold you on the edge of your seat waiting to see what the author has planned for you. I knew who was talking and just what they were feeling. This is the first time I have listened to any of his work and look forward to listening to more of it.
I thought the author did a nice job keeping the listener entertained by making you feel you were part of the story. I had no trouble seeing the pictures in mind as the plot thickens with a little bit of everything. The audio really came alive for me and I am not sure I would have enjoyed it as much if I had read this book. It will be one I will listen to again.

Great Team
Between R.E. McDermott's writing and Todd Haberkorn's narration you can't find a better team. McDermott writes with the knowledge of someone who knows what he is talking about... From Somali pirates to Russian Mafia human traffickers, his narrative is exciting and scary with twists and turns that take yo to the edge of despair (for the characters) and back again. Todd's ability to bring each character to life with believable accents that allow you to identify with them as if they were a personal friend is unique. Each character comes to life and draws you in emotionally. Be sure to read each book in order to better appreciate the relationships of the characters. I can't wait to see what else this duo will collaborate on next.

Death Below The Waves
Many times we reAd about about biological weapons in vials on sunken ships. The liquid gas in these vials were not what the book said, but one WAS there.

Just hooks you in!
Second of the series. I like the intelligent structure, informative marine scenarios and particularly the respectful and light-hearted inclusion of the Russian ex-special forces operatives on the side of the good guys for once.
The post novel notes were greatly appreciated to ground us in what was factually and chillingly accurate and what was the subject of artistic licence. A delicate line well trod.
Thank you. Most enjoyable.
