Review of The Date Farm
The Islamic country comes in harder than before. The Islamic terrorist group comes in with attacks on the United States without giving them a break or chance. The Date Farm is the fourth book in the Lara and Uri series by Jack Winnick.
Lara Edmond and Uri Levin decided to visit Lara’s family in the countryside during the summer. They had a great time there, and one night after an intimate session, they got a call that offered distressing news. A group of terrorists shot some unsuspecting individuals in the mall. While people shopped casually, a group of ten men clad in black came in and opened fire on the people, leaving 58 dead and 25 injured, and they took their own lives. Lara and Uri arrived later to investigate the situation. They meet dead ends and soon find out about infiltration into their communication system. How do Lara, Uri, and the FBI investigate and catch the perpetrators? Read this book to find out.
The Date Farm is a fictional novel of 334 pages by Jack Winnick that talks about the different methods Islamic groups have used to terrorize Jews and Americans. Although it is better to read this book from the beginning of the series to the end, it can still be read as a stand-alone. As the author said in his notes, the book is a work of fiction, but it contains some facts. The book has a background based on actual events, and for the author to write this book so well, he must have done some research. The author describes events in this book so well that readers can visualize them in their heads. It was relatable.
However, there are some things about this book that I frowned at. The first is that the book contains lots of characters. It was challenging to keep up with all of them. I ended up focusing on just the main characters, and most of the other characters were underdeveloped. The book also contains strange acronyms and names of organizations that readers are unfamiliar with. The author did not also include a glossary to explain these acronyms. For example, Navy SEAL is something I have heard, but I don’t know its meaning. For these reasons, I rate this book 4 out of 5 stars.
However, the book was well written. The author’s wife did well editing this book. I found zero errors while reading, which shows that the book was exceptionally well edited. The book had a dramatic and epic opening, and the author wrote in a descriptive and narrative style. The author also added the different places he set the story in. It shows the diplomatic relationship and politics between countries with bad blood.
I recommend this book to lovers of crime and investigative thrillers. Lovers of books on war and history will also relate to this book. I advise children to stay away due to its level of profanity, sex scenes, and violence.

Lara and Uri surely have a lot on their plate. I hope they eventually found the perpetrators.
Great review!
