I like this fast-paced novel involving the crime busting and romantically linked duo of Lara and Uri. I look forward to reading it. Congrats to the author for BOTD!

A very interesting religion based terrorism story book "Devil in False Colors" by Jack Winnick, which follows a massacre at a Jewish preschool in a suburb in California. This book is enjoyable to me to read.
life is only knowing the unknown, we can do this by reading books easily- Online book club is a great place for this. This is what I believe.

Terrorism is real and nations need to take measures to avert their plans. This story in this book, "Devil in False Colors" by Jack Winnick is a story of how terrorists attacked and killed people in a Jewish synagogue.

Great review! Your emphasis on the geopolitical aspects and their connection to real historical events has me intrigued. I appreciate when fiction delves into relevant global issues. Can't wait to explore the intricate plot of Devil in False Colors.

The devi in false colors by Jack Winnick is one of the other extraordinary books, his theme about terrorism never end to fascinate me. With the brief I read it gets hurting and cruel to see young children murdered brutally. The terrorist didn't only disguise themselves to murder but also beheaded their victims and also without fear of being found they went a head and left foot and finger prints at the scene together with a note.
I keep wondering why the Islamic state keeps on carrying out such acts to people whoare neither of the same religion as them or even those that fail to convert. These incidents bring back the FBI agent Lara Edmond into action, with the help of Mossad agent Uri levi as an undercover to assist her on unleashing these terrorist "hate crime" acts. These may have been repeated to several different places, with threat messages all-over their targeted areas like one where they sent unidentified package in it which contained Rabi's finger. But none the less all these have to be eliminated, I can't stop enjoying these actions between the US government and Israel government working hand in hand to solve these puzzles. Moreso Jack winnick's art of writing make one hyped to know more about the criminal motives and how to over come these,it's certainly very interesting to read these book series.

Uri and Lara are here again! It's so obvious these series are well written, and they're trying hard to overcome my dislike for anything politics.

I've always enjoyed reading Jack's books. I read this one a while ago and I seem to enjoy the theme and suspense that follows it. I enjoyed reading your review and I agree with you, the geopolitical outlook is the best feature of the book!

It was pathetic when I read about Arabic-speaking terrorists attacking a Jewish preschool which left five children dead.
It saddens me that children of that age are one of their targets. However, I admire the investigation team; Uri Levin and Lara Edmond for the tactics adopted to uncover this crime. Congrats on the BOTD and a satisfactory review.

I don't generally enjoy novels with strong political views. They create a lot of controversy. The story line, though it sounds interesting, but it is the kind of books that doesn't serve a large audience because of the different perspectives regarding who is the real victim and who is the real bad guy.

Oooh no! my God if you can give me the power on everything in the whole world first thing I would, destroy evil among everything but mostly in humans, the after I would create breathing of love and forgiveness and lo mercy, because I think if we all live respecting those factors everyone will understand that fight don't eliminate conflicts but increase it with hatred inside. If everyone can have love to other's this vicious attack couldn't took place at all, and those five children's will still be alive today and perfect leaders that do everything in their power to ignore war and stand tall against it and lead their Israel in peace without prejudice to other's.

Minor proofreading errata you spotted likely stems from the author's priority on meaty content over polish. Weighty themes should take center stage in such purposeful fiction.

Jack Winnick's book Devil in False Colors is an exciting and suspenseful read. According the reviewer, some of the strongest parts in Devil in False Colors deal with urgent issues including Iran's nuclear danger, international terrorism fueled by religion, and Russia's dubious role in it. It has proven to be a fascinating read. I appreciate your thoughtful and well-written review. Congratulations on BOTD, author.

The review of "Devil in False Colors" by Jack Winnick perfectly captures the essence of this geopolitical thriller. The emphasis on how the author intertwines historical events into a fictional narrative is intriguing. It sounds like the book does an excellent job in presenting complex themes such as international terrorism and political nuances. The development of characters, especially Lara, adds depth to the story. Your point about the potentially controversial political views expressed in the book is thought-provoking and suggests a layered narrative that could lead to interesting discussions among readers.
