"Devil in False Colors" by Jack Winnick is a gripping thriller that begins with a shocking massacre at a Jewish preschool in California, believed to be a hate crime by Arabic-speaking terrorists. The story follows Israeli Mossad agent Uri Levin and FBI agent Lara Edmond as they investigate the crime, rekindling their past romance. The novel's strength lies in its realistic portrayal of geopolitical issues such as international terrorism, Iran’s nuclear threat, and anti-Israel sentiment, woven into a compelling fictional narrative.

Terror strikes, not sparing even the most young victims. In the third volume of the Jack Winnick series, Lara of the FBI and Uri of Mossad work together to contain it again, making for an engaging read. This is an insightful assessment. Congratulations on BOTD, author!

As I delved into "Devil in False Colors," I found myself immersed in a world where the line between fiction and reality blurred. The story's exploration of terrorism's multifaceted impacts felt eerily relevant, echoing contemporary global concerns.
I believe in something greater than myself.
