About this listen

When an oil tanker is hijacked by a novice band of Somali pirates, it's a near impossible problem to solve in one of the most remote and dangerous places on earth.

A team of negotiators, security, and maritime experts are called in with one job to do, save the lives of the crew.

Can this "A-team" of experts do so? Can they prevent a massive environmental disaster, rescue the ship, and its hundred-million dollar cargo? There are reputations to be made, or lost....

The Ransom Drop, a true-to-real-life military suspense thriller that reveals the secrets behind the resolution of Somali piracy. It's factually correct, fictionally fantastic, and written by a guy who delivered some of the largest ransoms ever paid at sea.

I could not stop listening - the author knows what he is talking about and has written a taught and insightful novel. The reader hit the mark too and I spent 10 great hours enjoying the book.

Fast paced and interesting
