If I were to only base my decision on the cover and title, I think I wouldn't have dared to read this. But your review made everything clear that this is something worth reading! The plot sounds exciting ad the characters seemed to be well-written. I'm also glad that this could be considered as a standalone book despite it being fourth in the series. Thanks for your enlightening and wonderful review!

I like the characters of Uri and Lara from the word go. Being a loving couple and spy agents, they have the right predisposition to fight this terrorist group. Thanks for your insightful review.

A thriller revolving around two FBI and Mosad agents sounds interesting and intriguing. Great review.

A fiction with a believable plot and fast-paced action sounds amusing. Well-developed cast of characters supplements the book. The fact that the book is linked with historical events makes it even more interesting. Thank you for the thorough review.

The title definitely threw me at first, but it sounds like a good plot. I might even try the rest of the series.

An FBI agent teams up with a Mossad operative to hunt down terrorists who wreak havoc on Americans. The job is risky, and the story highlights the agents' dedication and bravery.

I like well-written thrillers/suspense novels, especially when the characters are also well developed. I'm glad that this book stands on its own without needing to read the rest of the series. Still, I'm not a fan of starting in the middle of the series, preferring to start at the beginning whenever possible, so I might have to wait on this until I get a chance to read the others. Thank you for your helpful review.

Based on the review this book is not something that I would enjoy reading. I am not a fan of crime/mystery thrillers. I think that I will pass on reading this book.

This definitely does sound like it is and I terwsting action packed story. I can appreciate the author referencing real life events. Unfortunately this one is not for me.. brutality on any level is a very sensitive subject for me. My spirit just dont handle it well, even if it is in a book. I know those that do read it will definitely be transported in the story. Congratulations on BOTD.
