The Lore of Lake Erie

The trilogy is complete as Richard Stern, the FBI, and mysterious events come together. An angel must be guiding Mr. Stern from Ohio to Oregon as he continues to harass the enemy as only Mr. Stern can do. Call it luck, great premonition or both, but Stern unintentionally baffles the enemy. Terrorist leaders must change their plans to assault Middle America. The terrorist leaders continuously revise and downsize the plan as Richard Stern finds pieces of the terrorist puzzle. Stern keeps the FBI informed. Even the FBI has a tough time deciphering and believing the information from the alcoholic. Agents Ron Roman and Bill Wright use Stern's information to drive a wedge into the gears of terrorism.

The crime fighter's efforts receive additional help from two highly unusual sources. Alert citizens and legends are factors that derail the terrorist's plan. Terrorist leaders are forced into abandoning schemes to hold whole towns hostage. They downsize the operation and move to a softer target.

Two cities compete in a boat race. These two party boats become the targets. The FBI is confronted with the emotionally charged hostage situations. The suicide bombers have little chance of success. FBI agents have two choices and both are considered suicidal.
