By Joel C. Rosenberg
Rosenberg’s The Third Target is such a unique, page turner for a suspense thriller following a New York Times foreign correspondent as the main character. I ordered this book purely based upon Rosenberg’s reputation but was thankful I had the second book in the series at the house because I could not wait to see what happened in the book series. This series does not disappoint.
“When New York Times foreign correspondent J. B. Collins hears rumors that an al-Qaeda splinter cell―ISIS―has captured a cache of chemical weapons inside Syria, he knows this is a story he must pursue at all costs.
Does the commander of the jihadist faction really have weapons of mass destruction? If so, who is the intended target? The U.S.? Israel? Or someone else?
With tensions already high, the impending visit of the American president to the region could prove to be the spark that sets off an explosion of horrendous proportions. Knowing that terrorist forces are already trying to bring down two Arab governments in the region―Iraq and Syria―can Collins uncover the truth before it’s too late? Or will the terrorists succeed in setting their sights on the third target and achieving genocide?”
I highly recommend this thriller for anyone that is willing to clear their calendar in order to keep reading until the end….you will not want to put the book down! Additionally, Rosenberg has established himself in the 1st tier of thriller writers without using one bad word and not including any sex scenes. Very thankful for his writing.
