"The Date Farm" by Jack Winnick. An interesting book, talks about Lara and Uri now married, having been into lots of missions. Uri visits Lara's family, seeing his in-laws, despite their works still made out time. They received an urgent call notifying of an horrific massacre occurred at a Los Angeles mall, resulting in many casualties and needs to be attend to. A fully action packed book. Congrats on your #BOTD.

From a sampling, this seems like an interesting thriller novel about a pair of anti-terrorism government agents, Uri and Lara, tasked with investigating a terrorist attack at a Beverly Hills mall and preventing a future attack on US soil. It seems to be worth another look. Well done.

The book Date Farm is a story related to terrorism and the hatred of Iranian Muslims and Muslims of other countries for the Jewish people and Israel.
And the United States of America comes with Muslims planning to destroy Israel and harm the United States of America.
The book talks about a shooting in a crowded shopping center in Beverly Hills, and the same gang attacks a bank in New York.
To steal it, Laradmond from the Federal Bureau of Investigation and Yuri Levin from the Mossad are appointed to bring this gang down.
A very interesting book that I advise everyone to read.

The story has an exciting plot, but some readers may be put off by the violent scenes. Especially for those who don't like detailed violence in what they read, this could be a downside to consider.

Thank you for such an informative review. I have read one of the books and also enjoy his style of writing. I feel Lara and Uri make a great team and couple whether it is professionally or personally. I'm glad this book doesn't emphasize killing your enemies. I agree that many will enjoy this book.

Thanks for the wonderful review. I enjoyed the thriller and action. The couple, Uri and Lara, are Hero's in the story, they will do anything in order to save lives and find the mysterious target of the attacks. As I was reading the first chapter, I could not stop , I found myself reading the next page and the next. The flow of the story was interesting. Congratulations to the Author for the BOTD!

I’m looking forward to digging into this novel to be with Uri and Lara as they embark on a new dangerous mission as they try to prevent terrorism from happening again just after the casualties in an LA mall. I like reading action filled books and this one is right up my alley.

Books in the action fiction genre are not usually the type of books I read, but I'm willing to give this novel a try since I found the story's premise to be very compelling. I am intrigued by the method(s) the terrorist group used in hijacking and attacking both the Department of Defense and Homeland Security and the Chase Manhattan Banks.
Congratulations to the author for BOTD!

'Official Review: The Date Farm' by Jack Winnick serves as a vivid and expressive account of the action thriller story for readers. It sketches out the details of the story for keen readers. The point that the story is a fast-paced international espionage and deals with Iran-US conflict is worth mentioning in the review. I commend the point that this work honors the bravery and heroism of those who dedicated their lives to the cause of freedom. Also, as mentioned in the review, the readers would see the romance progress in the story. It was great to learn that the story does nor advocate killing enemies!

Sounds like a good read. Nationalities and religions do not indicate who is the hero or the villain. the author doesn't condone killing enemies. The romance part about Lara and Uri's relationship that develops throughout the series creates an intriguing dynamic to the main thrilling plot of the espionage missions. Thank you for an amazing review.

"The Date Farm" cleverly merges international espionage with personal struggles, redefining heroism. Characters transcend their professional roles, challenging stereotypes. The narrative, fast-paced and rich in diverse settings, invites readers to rethink perceptions.

Another massacre to open this instalment of the series from Winnick and grab your interest. Having only read the excerpts it was good to understand how Uri and Lara’s relationship has developed.

Informative review. "The Date Farm" by Jack Winnick revolves around Uri and Lara, Fbi agents who are called for urgent mission during their honeymoon. Will both Lara and Uri, find out people behind massacre of Los Angeles mall, is the theme of the plot. Overall , author did good job in maintaining suspense and adventure.
