Ricky Keck, Environmental Sciences & Policy `03, has published his second novel, Bound by Honor, the sequel to Critical Response. These novels chronicle the adventures of a fictional, privately-funded, global emergency response team. The team, made up of ex-military commandos and civilian professionals, travels around the world in response to environmental disasters or threatening situations involving WMD.
Keck's background as a Navy bomb disposal technician and consultant for civilian response teams, helps him conjure up the plots and adds an element of realism to this genre of fiction. He is currently a grad student at Eastern Kentucky University.
