Om How 'bout Both
How 'bout Both is the third and final book in the Bader trilogy, and 21st Jim Scott book, though again Jim plays a very small part, while Hector Garcia gets involved a good deal more. In this book, Elmer and friends deal with a case involving domestic terrorism. Elmer runs into several obstacles along the way, including many attempts on his life. Old friend Hector Garcia lends a helping hand, as do FBI Special Agent Homer Spradling and NCIS Special Agent Greg Noonan, and others. Both Elmer and his new partner Maine Bobbitt are injured in a terrorist car bomb explosion, while they save many lives through their efforts. Identifying and capturing the car bomber becomes almost secondary to proving a case against the suspected head of several militant Islamist cells in the Los Angeles area.
One of the banes of law enforcement in America is home-grown Islamist terrorism. This is especially true when the home-growns are aided with funds and training from afar. This book deals with a Muslim cleric intent on causing as much damage and fear as possible with various acts of terrorism, who takes a personal dislike to Elmer Bader and his TV news reporter friend, Helen Bledsoe.
