A romantic political thriller featuring a Mossad agent and FBI agent can be found in the book "The Date Farm" by Jack Winnick. This is a wonderful entertaining novel.

"The Date Farm" is a gripping thriller blending high-stakes investigations with vivid descriptions of the Caribbean. I’m captivated by the mystery behind the mall attacks and the plot to infiltrate banks, making me want to follow Lara and Uri’s journey. Congrats BOTD!

"The Date Farm" by Jack Winnick is a gripping geopolitical thriller. The book features fast-paced action and suspense with an engaging storyline, vivid character development, and the author's knowledge of the subject matter makes it a compelling read. Although fourth in the series, it works well as a stand alone book. Well written review!

From this 'Seeing the teamwork among Homeland Security, the CIA, the FBI, and other investigative organizations gave me a new perspective on what goes into catching bad guys.' I discern that this book must be an interesting fast-paced thriller.

Thank you for your review. I read all of the books in this series. They are all excellent. This one has Uri and Lari as newlyweds. I love every book because the author educates you on terrorism in the world and the alliance of the US and Israel in fighting this problem. Congrats to the author for the #BOTD.

'All was peaceful in the Beverly Hills mall; shoppers were busy shopping, enjoying the entertainers, and minding their own business. This sense of peace suddenly changed when a group of mysterious men set off bombs inside the mall, injuring many.'
This is a huge change in the blink of an eye. How can people be this wicked?

"The Date Farm" by Jack Winnick begins with a brutal attack on the Beverly Hills shopping mall. Lara Edmond and Uri Levin will be among the first in the fight against terrorists. I like how much detail the author has described the Caribbean Sea and the yacht.
