Narrated in an expert manner from a third person eye view, the forty-one chapters of The Date Farm by Jack Winnick will never make you grow bored and uninterested. There is actually a lot in store for you to experience.

After conducting a self-sacrificing bomb explosion, the terrorists who get blown up at the Beverly Hills Shopping Mall in Los Angeles cry "Allahu Akhbar." Their job had been done. But did such misfitting end there? An intelligent couple and officers, Lara Edmond and Uri Levin, are on vacation when they are informed that there was an open fire at the mall. Their services are needed to track down the sociopaths who masterminded the bombing.

As they embark on their solution-finding mission, which initially seems somewhat fruitless, they travel to Israel to further their investigations. On their way, they receive information that the Manhattan Bank and some other big banks in New York have been attacked by the same group of terrorists. The officers then realize that what they are in for is no small battle. Would they be able to save America from perishing? What are the terrorists' grievances against America?

The beginning of the book has succeeded in setting the pace for the thrill of the story. It starts with events in Ohio, the bombing scene, and lots of commotion. I think this is a great and skillful way of introducing a thriller book. I must give the author a thumbs up for this.

Secondly, the political nature of the book provides well-informed details that are related to historical events. This aspect of the book is well detailed and educational. Power tussles can be seen, and the vices to which they can give rise, when abused, are what hold the foundation of Jack Winnick's storyline. I loved this about the book. The activities that Lara Edmond and Uri Levin partake in in order to tackle social mishaps were interesting to read about. They had to think outside the box. I liked the part where they sneaked into banks, along with Captain Tom Buckley's men who worked for homeland security. Also, the suspense in that scene really got to me, especially when they got caught and arrested.

Sincerely, I cannot mention anything that made me dislike the book because I thoroughly enjoyed reading it.
The Date Farm was exceptionally edited because it contains no errors. This earns it a rating of 5 out of 5 stars.

I recommend this book to an audience interested in crime and spy stories.
