"I love the Lara and Uri series. The character development and storyline are both fantastic. The author did an excellent job creating a story that feels authentic to life. The energy that the characters put into each mission, as well as the teamwork displayed as they fight to achieve their goals, is truly admirable."

The incorporation of swearing and gentle private scenes is dealt with elegantly, reasonable for perusers sixteen and up.

I love the cover: It’s so typical of Jack Winnick’s book covers, as are the first few pages. The opening event, so brutal and sickening, chills me to the core….

A horrific massacre at Los Angeles mall forces Lara and Uri to come out of their vacation. The book also explores the challenges involved in balancing their personal and professional life. Despite being part of a series the book can be read as a standalone.

I love everything about the concept of this book and the series in general. The action was well crafted. I really loved that it wasn't one of the cliche action novels I am used to. Thank you for your review. I loved our power couple, Uri and Lara. The thought process of our heroes drew me in—the dedicating of their lives for others is one aspect I'd greatly admire. Congratulations on making BOTD.

"The Date Farm", by Jack Winnick, is another series with a perfect balance between suspense and reflection, it receives a five out of five rating; It's a fascinating action-packed spy story that explores the complexities of the heroine, personalism and personal sacrifice (which makes us reflect a lot). The impressive editing ensures a smooth reading experience, while the thought-provoking narrative and well-developed characters make it a compelling and exciting read.

It is the 4th book of the Lara and Uri series but can be read as a stand alone. The book has themes of geopolitics and terrorism. While the book certainly looks intriguing, I think I will be skipping the book for now. Thank you for your review.

Here is an exciting espionage thriller by Jack Winnick that follows the story of Lara and Uri, two agents. The plot focuses on the concepts of heroes and villains while breaking down nationality biases. The story has many interesting aspects, making it a comprehensive read. I congratulate the author on being named the BOTD.

Although it's the fourth book in the series, I like that it can be read as a stand-alone. Knowing Lara and Uri's previous adventures, I'm sure this book will delight its target audience, too.

Actually it's a touching book of our unappreciated heroes who dedicated and put there lives on the line so that others can see a new day.
Not forgetting the author Mr. Jack
