In "The Ring, The Bomb, and the Word," a trio of agents from the RU, Religious Unit, part of the Anti-Terrorism Task Force of Homeland security, are stretched almost to the breaking point stopping attack after attack. But, are these seemingly unrelated small terror attacks more than they appear? Things heat up as the three agents learn of a previously unheard of religious terror group with plans on setting off a nuclear bomb, and what the terrorists see as a directive from God to stop the marriage of 10,000 same sex couples. The Unit is tasked with finding a suitcase bomb as it is transported from the former Soviet Union across Europe to the West, by some very deadly and shadowy agents. In the end, it all falls to Chuck Chisholm, the lead agent, who is handed the seemingly impossible task of thwarting this disaster. He finds himself alone, holding the fate of a South Florida community dependent on his ultimate decision. Will his new found spiritualism be enough?
Normally, reading the description of this book would have caused me to pass it. However, I am glad I didn’t. The action started out quickly and didn’t let up until the final chapter. This well-written book is full of intrigue and mystery. It contains well-thought-out characters, good and bad. The plot development, while just a tad slow in places, is also very good. The premise of the story is a sound one, and in today’s world of terrorists in all shapes and sizes, it asks a simple question: 'could an evil plot like this really happen?'
