This is an interesting crime fiction novel. Wow, I love the reviews people gave it, and I am sure it'll convince readers to know more. However, this review is well-detailed, making it easy for readers to understand. You'll meet Lara and Uri in this novel and guess what, their experiences working as an FBI agent are thrilling. I recommend this book. Congrats on BOTD!

Totally hooked on Jack Winnick's 'The Date Farm'! This book goes all-in on action and spies, making heroes real and villains complex. A wild ride that flips the script on what it means to be a hero!

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.

I read the first two Lara and Uri thrillers and I liked Jack Winnick's fantasy in creating plots inspired by terrorist threats against the USA and Israel. You confirm that the other sequels are great as well, so I plan to read them all. because it interesting and attractive

I am absolutely in love with these two characters, Lara and Uri, and I think it gives a nice touch to this series that they actually became a couple. I enjoy fast-paced political thrillers, so this is a guaranteed must-read for me. I also agree with you in what you said about this book honoring the bravery and heroism of those who fight for our freedom. Thank you for the wonderful review!

I really love this book because although it is all about heroes and villains, it doesn't advocates the killings of enemies,and more over, I like a good fulfilling action story.

Winnick is a master at creating suspense: The carnage at the mall is skillfully depicted. I hope he continues the Lara-Uri saga. The power couple is a great concept.

Lara's dual role as both an FBI agent on leave and an adjunct Mossad agent adds complexity to the story. It creates a tension between her personal and professional life, as well as the potential conflicts that may arise from her involvement with two different intelligence agencies. Nice review.

This is the fourth series of action-packed and fast-paced espionage thrillers. It explores the factors influencing perceptions about heroes and villains by showing both sides of the opposing parties. The representation of the characters delves into their private thoughts and decisions. the story looks into the secrecy of the operations and the recognition of achievements. Some accomplishments are not public knowledge for a reason after all. The book is not only interesting but extremely captivating and mouth watering.
