Ron Smoak: Captivating Stories
Writing a book has always been one of my bucket list items. I have written several articles for professional and technical journals and newspapers but always circled back to a novel. Each time I started to write a book, I simply talked myself out of it... It was too hard...
I don't have enough to say... My book would only be ten pages long. But I still had ideas.
When I began writing Alpha Threat, I made the mistake of telling several people what I was doing. They were thrilled! I, on the other hand, was amazed at how easy it seemed to be. I just closed my eyes and saw this movie going on. All I did was write down everything I saw. First there were only a few chapters. Then came more and more. My family and friends were pushing me for the book. So, on I wrote. The result was a book that I am proud of for many reasons. First and foremost, I finished it. Secondly, in my humble opinion, it is a great story. And finally, it is my first book! To see your name splayed across the cover of your own book is an exciting and humbling experience. I find myself constantly checking to see if this is a dream. But it is reality. I sincerely hope you enjoy Alpha Threat. A sequel to this book came out in 2014 titled Caribbean Chill. The funny thing is writing has become easier the more I write. So on I go... Keep on reading!

GERMANY, 1945
The year is 1945. Germany is on her knees. The Allies are streaming into Germany from all sides. The end of World War II is near. Even so, some of Hitler's most secret plans are beginning to yield success. Some of these plans are familiar; some are not. Some are lost; others live only to rise again. This is a story steeped in truth...
It is a massive secret. One largely unknown to the Allies until well after the war ends. It is a secret that could potentially destroy the world's economy regardless of the war's outcome. It is the Third Reich's most closely held plan; even more secret than the German nuclear or rocket propulsion programs but as threatening, nonetheless.
AMAZON RAINFOREST & MIAMI, 2011
Sixty-six years later, Dana and Randall Finley are in the midst of an anthropology expedition in the rainforests of the Amazon when they are kidnapped by mysterious men in black and taken to a vast underground complex. Their situation is dire.
Back in Miami, Florida, former U.S. Navy SEAL Dane Skoglund stumbles across a sinister, shady group dealing in precious metals and death. When he learns his sister and brother-in-law are missing, Dane is drawn into action.
Unknown to all but a select few, the stronghold in the Amazon jungle is the key to the Nazi's real goal to rule the world by destroying the world's economy. Dane follows the trail to this jungle lair to rescue his sister's group and encounters the Germans firsthand.
