13 Hours: The Inside Account of What Really Happened In Benghazi (2014) was co-written with the surviving members of the security team involved in the 2012 Benghazi attack on the U.S. consulate.

Frozen in Time: An Epic Story of Survival and a Modern Quest for Lost Heroes of World War II (2013) is about a U.S. military airplane that crashed on the Greenland glacier during World War II, the subsequent hunt for the plane, and Zuckoff's role in helping to find the plane buried in the ice decades later.[3]

Lost in Shangri-La: A True Story of Survival, Adventure, and the Most Incredible Rescue Mission of World War II (2011) is about a US military airplane called "The Gremlin Special", which crashed on May 13, 1945, in New Guinea, and the subsequent rescue of the survivors. Lost in Shangri-La won the Laurence L. & Thomas Winship/PEN New England Award and spent several months on The New York Times Best Seller list.
