It was just a normal rowdy Saturday evening in the mall until ten men who were fully clothed walked into the mall. The presence of these men somehow stirred up suspicion. These suspicions were true as these men spread themselves around the mall and gassed up the place before shooting sporadically at people in the mall. People scrambled around, trying to take cover for themselves as these men shot at them. It was real chaos in the mall. These men blew off their heads after committing this atrocious act. Of course, this caused an uproar in the city, and the police and every other department were required to surround the mall. This unfortunate event caused the vacation of the popular Lara and Uri to end abruptly. Their presence was required for the investigation. Did they catch the culprits?

I loved this book right from the first page. Even while writing this review, I could still feel the suspense within me. The storyline had a complete action-movie vibe. The action was well displayed, and every detail, from the biggest to the tiniest, combined to give this book the complete action movie content. I appreciate the author’s level of imagination. He spiced up the storyline with twists that popped up frequently within the story. It is one thing to create a unique storyline, but it is another thing to deliver the storyline, and I think the author’s job in delivering the plot was superb. He made sure that he chose the right words that helped to create a lucid image of the storyline.

While the author did his best to make the storyline look realistic, I disliked that I could still point out some flaws and unrealistic events in the storyline. For example, I find it hard to understand how quick it was for them to leave their vacation so soon because of a case they heard of. I did not know if the author was trying to show how patriotic they were or how much they loved their jobs, but it just did not sit well with me. It made me wonder if they were the only people who could do the job in the country.

This book, The Date Farm by Jack Winnick, still gets 5 out of 5 stars from me because of the storyline and the action in it. It was also exceptionally edited and contained no errors.

I recommend this book to people who love action novels and action movies. This is a book that they will enjoy. It is quite important to note that this book contains some gory scenes that may be disturbing to some readers.
