The review aptly touched on the near real life story of 'The Date Farm'. The marriage of secret agents of two different countries, united by love. :D :D :D

This is the second Jack Winnick book about terrorists that I've come across. I guess this time around they attacked a Mall, and Lara and Uri are now a couple. I'm curious as to how they fought these terrorists.

This looks like a good book for people who are into spy stories and thrillers mixed with terrorism and romance. The way the author writes is so descriptive and easy to understand and makes the reader stay on the edge of their seat.

The nicely woven plot and well-developed characters are two of the main factors that make this a great novel. However, the excess violence in the book doesn't make it my cup of tea. Nonetheless, congratulations on BOTD!

The date farm by jack winnick
It is such an educative story, Lara and uri are just amazing fighting for humanity at any cost without being selfish, Lara is an FBI official agent while on leave and also a mossad agent.
The editing is quite good although I noticed little mistakes. It's good for people at the age of eighteen and above
I'll be rating this 5

This riveting espionage thriller follows Agents Lara and Uri as they attempt to retrieve stolen goods, prevent the next terrorist attack, and capture the culprits. Due to Winnick’s extensive knowledge and background, his writing was frighteningly believable. I was immersed in the intricate details of the unforeseeable plot lines. Terrific book review!

The book sounds interesting and pretty intense with lots of actions moving from one place to another in a seemingly never ending chase for terrorists. Once an agent always an agent. Despite being on a leave the circumstances seem to never let her go. Lara has to go back to work and together with Uri "punish" the culprits. Congratulations on becoming BOTD!

This fast-paced, action-packed, thriller showing how unsung heroes fight terrorism and protect innocents sounds realistic. It also seems to raise awareness of how fragile the balance is between safety and terror all over the planet regardless of nationality. Great review!
