This thrilling ride through "The Date Farm" by Jack Winnick sounds like a heart-pounding adventure that keeps readers at the edge of their seats. From the dedication itself, where Winnick sets the stage for a story that reflects real-world events, to the well-developed cast of characters, this book promises to deliver an exciting international thriller.

I love how the author weaves together various locations, federal agencies, and the actions of both the agents and the terrorist group. It's like a high-stakes game of chess played on a global scale. And speaking of the agents, Lara and Uri sound like a power couple to be reckoned with. Their dynamic, their devotion to each other, and their lack of typical bravado make them refreshingly authentic and relatable.

It's fantastic to hear that "The Date Farm" stands on its own, making it accessible even if you haven't read the previous books in the series. The seamless incorporation of past missions adds depth and context to the story without overwhelming newcomers. And when a book leaves you with nothing to dislike, that's a clear sign of a captivating read.

With the reviewer's solid four-star rating, "The Date Farm" is undoubtedly worth checking out for fans of international thrillers. If the suspense, realism, and well-written plot are any indication, this book is a must-read for those seeking an adrenaline rush that takes them from Beverly Hills to Tehran and beyond. So buckle up, grab a copy, and get ready for an exhilarating journey!

Jack Winnick does it again; a third-time entry as BOTD in four months is an incredible feat. I sampled the book a few months ago. As with all of his books, it began with an action-packed scene: a terrorist attack in the mall. Winnick has nailed the art of grabbing the attention of his audience, and I commend his writing skills. Congratulations on being selected for BOTD!

From being coworkers to being each other spouses, Lara and Uri have come a long way. With amazing plot, suspense, thrill, and location settings, the author has done a commendable job here. With a touch of real-life, like Lara being doubted because of being a female the author has presented another International thriller.

From start to finish, there is never a dull moment within the fast-paced and realistic plot. In fact, the story is so gripping that it could easily be mistaken for a current event. Great review 👍

To be honest, I couldn’t get past the sample of this one myself due to the very pro-America/anti-Islam propaganda vibes, but I’m glad you enjoyed it :)
