In the wake of 9/11, a top-secret government agency titled "The Federal Rapid Response Unit" was created back in 2001. Immediately nicknamed "Unit One" by then-President George W. Bush, it was comprised of only the very top agents from various agencies such as the C.I.A., F.B.I. and N.S.A.; this investigative/ paramilitary force was designed exclusively for the purpose of stamping out Middle East terrorism before it could ever gain a foothold on American soil again. Everything worked as planned until Christmas Eve, 2015, when "Accurate Energetic Systems," a Tennessee company that manufactures C-4 explosives for the Defense Department, was overrun by a group of "home grown" terrorists under the direction of a former Navy SEAL now gone bad. This crisis soon would escalate into the worst predicament our country and perhaps the entire world has ever faced. Based on actual, ever-fluid, breaking-news events, "The Heroes of La Palma" will have you shaking your head at how easily this plot could potentially take place in real-life. But when the dust settles, you'll also be thankful that for once, it seems that our government finally did something right...it created "Unit One." "The Heroes of La Palma" is Book 1 of the series, "The Federal Rapid Response Unit."
