Discrimination is found everywhere in the world. It occurs amongst countries, ethnic groups, and even religious groups of the same faith.

Devil in False Colors by Jack Winnick illustrates these divisions seen in religious and ethnic groups. The story shows a plot made by Iranian Prime Minister, Feroze Abbasi, to wipe out the Jewish and Sunni Muslims' communities while delivering a massive blow to the United States of America.

Uri Levin (Mossad's famous assassin) and Lara Edmond (FBI agent) were in Los Angeles to investigate a criminal case (the death of five children) at a preschool in Beverly Hills. Uri travels under the guise of an Israeli businessman, Uri Cohen, to Los Angeles. Later, he goes undercover as Mohammed Azizi under the alias of Farid Refai to infiltrate the Muslim community. Meanwhile, Lara goes undercover as Lisa Johnson, an unmarried woman. Moreover, Iran wants to achieve full nuclear capability with the help of the Russians. Will Iran start World War III by threatening the United States of America?

I love the way the writer described the events in the book; he gave a detailed explanation of things that occurred. For example, I admire how he described the attack on the Sunni Mosque. Also, the attack on the Jewish congregation on the "Purim" festival day was detailed to show how the plan went amiss from an inconsequential event.

Jack Winnick's conceptualization portrays the level of discrimination amongst humans in the world. I admire how the author was able to show how people justify violence when they become religious fanatics. There are great life lessons to learn from this fictional storyline.

The characters are well-developed, and Lara is my favorite. She is bold, brave, and passionate. Lara voluntarily agreed to go undercover despite seeing a video of an abused woman by the extremists. Many people would have bolted after watching that video, but she carried on more fiercely and dedicated her entire resources to stop the attacks.

The book is flawless and well-written. The sentences are simple and neat in a way that anyone could easily understand it at first glance. Overall, I rate Devil in False Colors 4 out of 4 stars because it has a real-life setting. I admire how the author used the description of places, languages, and historical events to create a realistic plot. Furthermore, Lovers of international thrillers will enjoy this book. Moreover, there is nothing I dislike about this thrilling novel.
