You would never guess from the title what the book is about. Great review, I enjoyed it but this one is not for me.

This is a good one but i haven't read tge others and it has forced me to read othe others too. It would be better to watch a movie on it. I always have likes thrilling characters and story too. Uri and lara have made a good team and both are my favourites too. But one thing i would suggest is that it would be better to write with less terrorism as everyone has a different mindset.

Based on your descriptions and the events in today’s world...this stand-alone thriller sounds frighteningly realistic. Thank you for the great review!

From this review it seems that current book is just right my alley. I always liked to read about FBI investigations. My only hope is that romantic part of story won't became at some point more central than thriller itself.

Thanks for the excellent review! From the sample I read and from your review, I have decided to add this book to my want to read list. Terrorism is everywhere today so this book comes to our attention at a very good time! It is scary to go to malls now, at least for me! The scene of the shooting in the mall could be a reality. I love international thrillers and this one sounds really good!

Husband and wife team, Mossad agent Uri Levin and FBI agent Lara Edmond , are sent to investigate a shopping mall massacre where more than one hundred people have been killed. This is an exciting and action-packed story with strong relatable characters. Congratulations to the author for being chosen as BOTD. Thanks to the reviewer. This was a wonderful review. You really got me interested in this book.

This is a real thriller. I was fascinated from the first page in the Amazon sample with how the story begins with action. Thanks for the wonderful review.

This review definitely makes me want to download and read it. I know it says the book stands alone but I'd like to get into the series, great review.

I could easily see this on the big screen, and I think it's great that it can be read as a standalone book. Action packed crime thrillers are my kind of books, and this is certainly worth checking out. Thanks for your fantastic review.

Sometimes the name of a book is very different of what are you going to read. They cut short their vacation at Lara’s family farm in Ohio and head to Los Angeles. The author aptly balances the recurring protagonists’ romantic and professional lives, and they have to move from cities and countries, these agents face off against Islamic terrorists initiating attacks in the United States.

Hmm. I'm not a thriller fan, but I do appreciate the author's attempt to pull real life into his work. This one sounds interesting for the right reader, although I'm afraid that reader isn't me. Thank you for your review.

This was a wonderful review. The couple does a good job in investigation of the massacre of more than a hundred people by terrorists. This book is a thriller and is worth reading.
