I like that this book doesn't have a dull moment and can be fast-paced. I also cool to know that Lara won over those who doubted her ability to complete a mission. Nice review.
Just reading... :techie-studyingbrown: :techie-studyinggray:

This sounds to be an interesting story. I like the fact that it is using real world events as the plot.

Its a book in a series but I am glad that it can be read as a stand alone. A thriller book with an amazing story. The characters are realistic. Congratulation on BOTD!

The book reminds me of 9/11. Terrorism has never been more real as in our present life. I thank the author for bringing this topic once again. Thanks for your review.

The best part about this book is how its plot is unpredictable and gets more and more interesting as you flip the pages. The security of the communication networks and satellites of both the Department of Defense and Homeland Security have been breached, and - to add to it all - there has been an attack on the Federal Reserve and the Chase Manhattan Banks. How do the main characters play into the whole plot? Only reading The Date Farm will tell.

'Official Review: The Date Farm by Jack Winnick' reflects the reviewer's clear insight of the book. The story of terrorism seems to be normal and natural that would draw the attention of a general reader in the modern era! The ending of the review gives a bright impression of the book in our minds!

I love suspense thriller and a fast-paced book with a realistic plot of fighting terrorism. I'm glad that is a stand alone, as I haven't read the other book from the series. Great review! Thanks!

Thank you for sharing your review with us. It’s a sad state of affairs when such horrible acts of terrorism can be compared to reality. As always I’m rooting for the good guys and I look forward to seeing how their nasty plans will be foiled.

The Date Farm by Jack Winnick is an #International #Thriller packed with #Action, #Crime, and #Suspense. It follows the quest of the couple, Lara (FBI agent) and Uri (Mossad agent), to stop the terror attacks on a Beverly Hills shopping mall and a bank in New York. It is the fourth book in the Lara and Uri series.

Thanks for the review.

"The Date Farm" by Jack Winnick is an international thriller, the plot of which seems to have strong ties to historical events. The plot seems interesting with the well-developed characters of Lara & Uri. Though this book is a part of series, it is evident from the review that it can be enjoyed as a standalone. Congrats on BOTD!

Unfortunately, this is not my kind of book considering the rather radical separation between the good guys and the bad guys with America and her allies gloriously fighting some obscure forces from the Middle East. I don't agree with the author's generalizations and stereotypical views (see the reference to the "waving youths in Tehran, in Damascus, in Kabul, in Ramallah" seemingly acclaiming the terrorist attack on a shopping mall in Beverly Hills).

Any story on terrorism is an off for me... But m undecided on this book because it's also a thriller which is one of my favorites.

Given the terror the terrorists have committed all over the world, the storyline sounds extremely real. I'm interested to read how this book evolves. I also like that it can be read as a standalone. Great review!
