Thomas Crocker and SEAL Team Six are back for another adrenaline-packed adventure from former SEAL commando Don Mann.
When a cargo ship is captured by pirates off the east coast of Africa, SEAL Team Six is called into action. What looks at first like a simple search and rescue turns much more perilous when the ship's cargo is revealed to be yellowcake, a critical component in nuclear weaponry. Thomas Crocker and his squad are dispatched to Libya with a clear objective: to secure the dangerous materials before terrorists can unleash nuclear havoc on the world.
Hunt the Scorpion is a lightning-fast thrill ride - a bold new chapter in the Thomas Crocker SEAL Team Six adventures. It will leave readers breathless, charged, and ready for the next op.

Don Mann (CWO3, USN) is the author of the forthcoming Inside SEAL Team Six and has for the last thirty years been associated with the Navy SEALS as a platoon member, assault team member, boat crew leader, or advanced training officer; and more recently program director preparing civilians to go to BUD/s (SEAL Training). Up until 1998 he was on active duty with SEAL Team 6. Since his retirement, he has deployed to the Middle East on numerous occasions in support of the war on terror. Many of the active duty members of SEAL Team 6 are the same guys he taught how to shoot and conduct ship and aircraft takedowns, and trained in urban, arctic, desert, river, and jungle warfare, as well as Close Quarters Battle and Military Operations in Urban Terrain. He has suffered two broken backs, two pulmonary embolisms, and multiple other broken bones, in training or service. He has twice survived being captured during operations.
Co-writer Ralph Pezzullo is a New York Times bestselling author and award-winning playwright, screenwriter, and journalist. His books include Jawbreaker (with CIA operative Gary Berntsen).
Mann, along with coauthor Pezzullo, brings back his SEAL team leader Thomas Crocker in this follow-up to Seal Team Six: Hunt the Wolf. A cargo ship is hijacked by pirates, and Crocker and his fellow SEALs are sent to rescue the crew. They discover that the majority of the men have been killed, but the captain has survived. An investigation reveals that the cargo the ship was carrying could be used to fuel a nuclear weapon. Add a threat of WMDs from Libya, and you have a SEAL team in over their heads. The action is nonstop, and Mann does a fine job giving readers the feel of what it’s like to be a member of the SEALs, from danger to camaraderie. --Jeff Ayers
