      Brandon Webb stál na čele život ohrozujúcich misií na najproblematickejších miestach sveta, počas ktorých skákal z lietadiel, odzbrojoval nepriateľské lode na otvorenom mori či vyslobodzoval väzňov uprostred noci v afganských horách. Ako člen elitných námorných jednotiek US Navy SEALs sa naučil, ako neprepadnúť v desivých situáciách panike. Vo svojej knihe na príklade vlastných skúseností aj zážitkov iných úspešných ľudí ukazuje, ako je možné zmeniť svoj život a prekonať vlastné obmedzenia už len tým, že sa naučíme ovládať svoj strach či pocit náhlej paniky. Sám tvrdí, že ak máme strach využiť vo svoj prospech, nesmieme s ním bojovať, prekonávať ho či ignorovať, ale naopak – musíme ho prijať a spoznať jeho príčiny. Tento proces sa dá zvládnuť pomocou piatich ľahko uskutočniteľných krokov opísaných v jeho knihe. Ovládať by ich mal každý, kto potrebuje vo svojom živote nabrať viac odvahy a mať všetko viac pod kontrolou.

    • Brandon Webb, bývalý odstřelovač jednotek Navy SEALs a úspěšný autor bestsellerů, sdílí osobní vzpomínky na osm kamarádů, kteří přinesli nejvyšší oběť. Webb zdůrazňuje, jak ho poznání těchto jedinečných mužů a jejich činů změnilo. Jejich příběhy nesmí být zapomenuty; je čas oslavit jejich životy po smutku nad jejich ztrátou. Webb se stal členem elitní odstřelovačské jednotky, prošel náročným výcvikem a účastnil se bojových misí v Perském zálivu a Afghánistánu. Jako vedoucí utajovaného výcvikového programu Navy SEALs pro odstřelovače vychoval novou generaci profesionálů. Během této doby se sblížil s muži, kteří se stali jeho blízkými přáteli a hrdinně padli. Kniha přináší pravdivé příběhy plné udatnosti a lidskosti těchto „ovčáčích psů“, kteří nás chrání před krvelačnými vlky. Mezi nimi byl Matt „Axe“ Axelson, který zahynul v Afghánistánu, a Chris Campbell, Heath Robinson a J. T. Tumilson, kteří byli oběťmi sestřelení vrtulníku Extorsion 17. Glen Doherty, Webbův dlouholetý přítel, tragicky zahynul v Benghází při evakuaci diplomatů. Webb vzpomíná i na další přátele a spolubojovníky, jejichž odvaha a obětavost zůstávají inspirací.

      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. "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.
