This review provides a solid overview of "The Devil in False Colors," complimenting its mixture of fictional and historical geopolitical themes. The reader’s appreciation for international terrorism and the glimpses of character development are apparent. However, it does suggest that sharing controversial ideas can elicit mixed reactions from readers.

The book is thrilling with horror. On the other hand, the author speaks about hate crime perpetrated by Arabic speaking terrorists. The story goes on to stimulate the reader to continue reading and see how the terrorists were eliminated .

The novel's best feature, which is the geopolitical outlook, seems similar to what is happening in current affairs. It should be interesting to learn from it while being immersed in the story:
'Israeli national Uri Levin, “one of the most famous of Mossad's assassins,” travels undercover (as Uri Cohen, a businessman) to aid Lara Edmond of the FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force in the investigation of a vicious massacre that leaves five children dead at a Jewish preschool in an upscale suburb in California. The country and the world are shocked by what seems to be a hate crime perpetrated by Arabic-speaking terrorists. Some of the best passages in "Devil in False Colors" by Jack Winnick are related to pressing issues such as religiously motivated international terrorism, Iran’s nuclear threat, and Russia’s shady role in it.'

"Devil in False Colors" sounds like a fiction but embraces many historical facts and informations inside it. This plot seems interesting with the concept of love, death, terrorism, politics and so on. Waiting to dwell into it. Congratulations on the BOTD.
