Ron's three titles --- "Hypocrite" a suspense-filled novel about when the ultimate agnostic runs headlong into the quintessential evangelist and neither man is quite who he professes to be, "Victory Betrayed" based on his real-life experience as a gunner in Vietnam, and "Granny Snatching" the plight of the elderly.
