While on their vacation at Lara's family farm house, the two agents got an emergency call that required their presence immediately in Los Angeles. Terrorists in black stormed the Beverly Hills mall in Los Angeles and opened fire indiscriminately on everyone and everything. This was done to incite terror in the people of America. After firing indiscriminately, they cried out "Allahu Akhbar" and sacrificed themselves. An investigation is carried out to identify the culprits of this horrifying act and to determine why they committed such an atrocious deed. The FBI investigation turns out to be fruitless despite special agents Lara and Uri's extensive knowledge in this field. As they prepared to depart for Israel, another call informed them that the New York banks had been attacked and taken over without any sort of negotiation from the culprits and that their intentions were still unknown. To halt the terrorists, Homeland Security agent Captain Tom Buckley arranges for his men to break into the two banks with Lara and Uri, but they are discovered and captured, and they are then taken away. What lies ahead for them? What might have prompted the intentional intrusion? How will they get away from these terrorists? Read this book to find out more.

This book was written from a third-person point of view and has a total of 41 chapters. In addition, the book's leisurely pace added to its appeal. First off, I appreciated how the chapters were sporadically brief rather than excessively long. This book kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time since it was exciting and suspenseful, and it was easy to follow the twists and turns of the plot. The writer always had an intriguing story and would introduce one when you thought the other was over. I have a lot of questions about America and its foes after reading this book. I've read other books similar to this one in which Arabs are presented as terrorists and adversaries of the United States. But I appreciate that the author refrained from labeling them all as terrorists.

Everything about this book, from the narrative to the character development to the pacing, was enjoyable to me. I was unable to identify any aspects of the book that I found objectionable. I learned a lot from this book, and I couldn't help but think that if evil people were to focus their efforts on doing good, it would bear a lot of fruit for them, and the people around them would also benefit from their goodness. However, a lot of people choose to go the destructive route. The fact that Uri and Lara persevered in the face of varying difficulties encouraged me to never give up. They always sought solutions to the problems and obstacles they encountered.

The presence of minimal errors indicates that this book was professionally edited. Because I thoroughly enjoyed The Date Farm by Jack Winnick and could not find anything to dislike about it, I would give it a rating of five out of five stars. Although this is the first book in Uri and Lara's series that I have read, it had an engaging and captivating plot, and there was no confusion at all because it was written as a standalone. I'm astounded at how subtly profanity was utilized in this book, especially given the types of characters described.

I would recommend this book to fans of fictional books with action and crime thrillers. In my opinion, young adults and teenagers can also read this book.

I find the intention of these terrorists to be somehow. They could have used a diplomatic way to get what they want, instead they go through the stress of killing the innocents and even themselves.

Lara and Uri story has always been an interesting one, I believe this is another interesting stand alone series. Nice review

[Amanda Warner]

Terrorist attacks instill fear in their victims. I'd love to know if Lara and Uri were able to escape or if they were rescued.

[Flourish Sunday]

Lara and Uri are my favorites in this book because of the way they tirelessly fought the terrorist group. I love their determination and courage. Good job.

I haven't read this book but I know well I would enjoy it as I did enjoy East Wind by Jack Winnick. Nice review any way.
