Wow. This book sounds heavy. Just the opening with the massacre had me a bit shock. Maybe it's because I just got some bad news, so not sure if it's one I'll consider reading, but a good review none the less.

This book seems to tackle some heavy political subjects well, but I found it too graphic in the small sample I read. I'll have to pass.

Seems like a good crime novel. From your review, I'd definitely love Lara's character. This seems like a stand-alone book so I added it to my to-read list.

This book sounds fascinating. telling a story relating to terrorism is a tricky one to do especially in this day and age. Thank you for your review. If I'm not mistaken, this is part of a series that I am keen on reading.

This sounds like an intriguing thriller. The book sounds unique with some of its geopolitical views. The sounds like a well written and put together book.

A thriller where the main characters solve the crime of a horrendous massacre sounds like a nail-biter. I also like that the author incorporated historical facts about the three different Muslim groups. Great review!

Sounds like a great read. Thanks for sharing your review with us. I think the murdered kids would definitely grab and keep my attention and I'm also glad to hear there are not alot of mistakes in this book.

This sounds like an amazing book. Even though its a fictional piece, it feels good to learn that the plot is tied to some historical events which makes it an interesting boo for someone like me who loves historical books. Many thanks for piecing together such a great review.

This is definitely my kind of book with ingredients that involve the Mossad and FBI. There is nothing I hate more than terrorism I truly believe it is one of the world's most wicked indecencies to take human life just to prove a point is so dreadful. "We are all one under God's sun". Thanks for a truly moving and engaging review.

Terrorism is a theme that I despise so much that it is horrifying to even read about. The review states that Iran is supported by European interests, quite probable. I tried but I just can't handle this book. It begins with a multiple homicide at a kindergarten. Way too much for me to bear!

The plot is timely and relevant, as news of terrorism create havoc around the world. It seemed to be a very exciting and action-packed novel spiced with love story on the side to satisfy a reader's craving for romance. Congrats!

The book is similar to some of the terrible things that are happening today. The review was very through and descriptive.

The book East Wind by Jack Winnick was a very interesting story - I enjoyed how a light was shown upon this unfortunate area of world corruption. How people based on pure ignorance can misjudge and mistreat is beyond our control of course, prejudice is something that we can only speak against, but cannot change in the minds of others. It is a most sad thing.

Wonderful review! It's really detailed and encompassing. I certainly will like to read this book. Uri's portrayed personality seems to have captured my attention.
