What a traumatic experience it must be to get attacked by terrorists while shopping, listening to live music and relaxing in a shopping mall. Thankfully there are people in various organisations who dedicate their lives to keeping the rest of us safe. Thank you for your informative review.

From the preview of the book I had the pleasure of reading, and looking at these reviews, I can tell this is a book I simply have to read! I, of course, will want to start with the whole series, but from just reading the praise about the excellent character development, I am confident that Jack Winnick is an author I will be adding to my shelf’s!

I really need to start reading Jack Winnick's books. They tick all the boxes for me, and suspenseful thriller, with a lot of action and some terrorism and espionage. Thanks for a great review. Congrats on BOTD.

Lara and Uri Series is a very interesting one. I've read two books in this series, and this 4th book is definitely on my tbr list. Lara and Uri are two incredible law enforcement officers. I look forward to reading this book!

This is book four of Jack Winnick's sequel. I followed the book series up until book three. The FBI pair, Lara and Uri, have been amazing espionage couple assisting in catching the bad guys who are a threat to the Americans. What I like about the author's work is his unique ability to blend crime, politics, and romance in all his works. Plus, the immense research he does to offer authentic work is usually reflected in all his writings. This book is worth the time to read if you enjoy crime or political thrillers blended with espionage operations with a hint of romance. Great work.

Thanks for sharing this review!<3 It sounds like The Date Farm by Jack Winnick is a compelling read, blending political thriller elements with vivid descriptions and engaging characters. The teamwork among various security agencies and the beautiful Caribbean setting seem to add depth and intrigue to the story. It's always fascinating when an author can balance action-packed sequences with rich, detailed descriptions.

I read the sample and this review sums it up pretty well. The book starts off on a literal bang with the mall scene being quite shocking. This is one of those thrillers that pulls you in instantly

Extremely intriguing! Having read the sample makes me want to read the entire book in one go asap. The pacing of the book fails to uninterest you. The description of the tragedy, the working together of all the forces during a national threat - all puts into perspective how bravely and dutifully several people risk their lives to protect their countries. It makes us realise how incredibly nerve-wracking this type of field is and how we often fail to acknowledge the efforts that go unseen. The highlight of the fact that the working of the agents are highly confidential made me realise how much must go on behind the curtains. The author moves from perspectives to perspectives smoothly and intriguingly, grasping your attention.

I just read the sample and it has really convinced me to give The Date Farm a shot! The blend of political intrigue, teamwork among security agencies, and those vivid Caribbean descriptions sound amazing. Even though the quick escape part might be a bit too convenient, it seems like the rest of the book more than makes up for it. Thanks for the detailed insight
So, I'm definitely adding this to my reading list! 📚✨
And congratulations on the BOTD

The review provided valuable insights. The plot sounds captivating, centered around the mysterious bombing at a Beverly Hills mall. I'm eager to dive into the story to see how Lara and Uri navigate their investigation and uncover what the terrorist group was really after.

This review makes the book sound exciting. It seems like there’s a lot of action with bombings and bank heists, plus a bit of romance between the main characters, Lara and Uri. I liked how the story shows teamwork among different agencies like the CIA and FBI. I also enjoyed the detailed descriptions of the Caribbean, which made it easy to imagine being there. It's a great book for those who love thrillers and romance!
