Deadliest Sea

The Untold Story Behind the Greatest Rescue in Coast Guard History

By: Kalee Thompson

Narrated by: Suzanne Toren

Deadliest Sea by Kalee Thompson is the spellbinding true story of the greatest rescue in US Coast Guard history. Recounting the tragic sinking of the fishing trawler, Alaska Ranger, in the Bering Sea and its remarkable aftermath in March 2008, Deadliest Sea is real-life action and adventure at its finest. The full story of an amazing rescue - where extraordinary courage, ingenuity, will, and technology combined in one of the most remarkable maritime feats ever recorded - has never been told before now. It’s The Perfect Storm meets Deadliest Catch.

Great story!

I thought this was just going to be a spinoff of El Faro meets Deadliest Catch, but it was much more. Story covered a lot of ground (water) without much depth (pun-intended) though. Wish there had been more details about where the culprits are years-later

Riveting

Great read, narration excellent, very informative, enjoyed very much. I was actually disappointed when it was over.

the way it was written

the narrarator over embellished some of the dialogue,but it was a good story worth a listen

Powerful Story

I loved every minute of this true story of a dramatic rescue. The story is well researched and the backstories are nicely folded in. The narration was just great.

Blackhawk Down on the Sea

Structured much like the minute by minute formats of Blackhawk down or 13 Hours. Of course, no combat involved, but the author clearly understood the subject matter, meticulously interviewed survivors, and effectively conveyed the challenges and risks of commercial fishing and the bravery of the U.S. Coast Guard.
