The Date Farm is an exciting and thrilling story that follows a couple whose summer plans are abruptly halted when they are enlisted to investigate a large-scale terror attack that took place in a Beverly Hills mall. The protagonist, a wife who is an adjunct agent for the FBI, and her husband, an Israeli Mossad agent, find themselves battling an unknown terrorist with a hidden agenda that goes beyond the attack on the mall. The couple must work together to intercept the terrorist, who has gained access to the top-notch Federal Reserve, where national treasures such as gold and other valuables are kept.


I find the main characters of the book, Uri and Lara very interesting to me, but I am particularly intrigued by the character of Uri basically how he navigates his relationship with Lara, her family and his work. Uri is a man who is emotionally secure and is not threatened by the success of his partner. How they constantly work together to bring about a positive change in the situation of things, depicts a couple who share strong similarities in purpose, and value, their constant concern for each other's safety is amazing and shows the sincerity of the relationship and love that exist between them.


Jack Winnick does a fantastic job of bringing the story to life, making it difficult to believe that it is a work of fiction. The book is filled with concise knowledge about national forces, the sea and ships, and national security, making it engaging and informative. The inclusion of a collection of countries, agencies, and individuals makes it even more captivating and exhilarating for readers.


The book is exceptionally edited, and I didn’t come across any errors, indicating the author's commitment to a polished and well-crafted book. The use of intrinsic words and terminologies encourages vocabulary development and fosters an interest in learning. The book is not only thrilling but also educational, making it an excellent example of "edutainment" literature.


In conclusion, The Date Farm is an absorbing and captivating read that will leave readers on the edge of their seats. The author's ability to bring the story to life and the inclusion of national security knowledge make it a must-read for anyone who loves thrillers. I give the book a rating of 5 out of 5 stars for the reasons mentioned above, and I highly recommend it to everyone who enjoys a well-crafted and thrilling story.

Uri and Lara were happily married and successful. Uri is a brave man that is emotional secure and isn't threatened by the success of his wife, which is very good for a man.

The attack at the Beverley Hill's mall is worrisome. However, I am glad to know how Lara and Uri offered to intervene in this situation, abandoning their love, personal, and career lives. I like the personality of Uri and what an amazing partner he is. The information on national forces and the sea are highly invaluable. And lastly, I commend the author for giving this novel an exceptional editing.

This book captures attention right from the beginning. The author is indeed a great storyteller. There is also evidence of geographical and cultural knowledge about the Middle East in the book. Can't love the book less.
