I learned from this book that gold fishes are used to test the quality of water at treatment plants. I enjoyed reading "Waterworks" by Jack Winnick.

From a sampling, this seems like an interesting thriller novel following two government agents, Lara and Uri, who after being informed of strange events surrounding a water processing and testing plant outside of Los Angeles, are tasked with investigating any potential terrorist involvement. It might be worth a second look. Well done.

Spy stories of Lara and Uri are 'spicy' intrguing, moreso, the setting is in the intelligence facilities of Iran. This review sparks the fire to a non-stop read as it unfolds and spills some reality check. I will definitely read it cover to cover today. :tiphat:

I thoroughly enjoyed the review of the book Waterworks by Jack Winnick. The premise of government agents gathering intelligence regarding a terrorist attack in Los Angeles intrigues me. I would like to read Waterworks and possibly other Lara and Uri books. Good review.
