[Jeff Kanda]

From your review, this is a book that I would enjoy. I am a great fan of political thriller and this one seems to have all the aspects that I would enjoy.
Thanks for the engaging review!

From the reviews it seems that current book is just right up my alley. I always liked to read about FBI investigations. My only hope is that the romantic part of the story won't become at some point more central than the thriller itself. Congratulations on BOTD!

I have read another installment featuring Lara and Uri before they got married and enjoyed their work ethics. I wonder how they work now that they are married. I'll check this book out.

I like the depth of research and realism in The Date Farm. Highlighting the teamwork among agencies adds authenticity and makes the story more engaging and informative for readers. Great job!

Your review of *The Date Farm* is well written. You briefly and engagingly captured the core of the narrative. I like how you highlighted the author’s research, relatable characters and vivid descriptions, especially of the Caribbean setting, as aspects you like! It's also interesting to hear that while Lara and Uri are skilled, you wished for more struggle to raise the tension even higher, as of improvement on the narrative. Thanks for such a detailed and engaging review.

I read "The Date Farm" by Jack Winnick. The book has suspenseful action, humorous characters, realistic villains, and cute romance. I loved the seriousness Lara and Uri put into finding the terrorist, and the love between them couldn't be a distraction. It is a good political thriller. Congratulations on BOTD!

Thanks for a beautiful review. I conjured fantastic imagery while perusing it. We are grateful for the 'Uris' and 'Laras' that have been preserving lives. Jack Winnick's "The Date Farm" is an engaging literary piece. Congratulations on being BOTD.

Jack Winnick turned out another masterpiece in the Uri and Lara series.
In "The Date Farm," the now-married Uri and Lara, honeymooning on Lara's family farm, were assigned to assist with infiltrating the Chase and Federal Reserve banks because the same terrorist group who bombed Beverly Hills Mall was after something else in one of these buildings. What could they be after? Read all about it in this romance and political thriller.

In Date Farm, a peaceful day at the Beverly Hills mall turned deadly as terrorists bomb a building. Lara and Uri then launched an investigation into this. Congrats on BOTD

[Atieno Magero]

I can tell that this is going to be a gripping and hard to put down kind of novel. I'm curious to see how our favourite duo Lara and Uri will save the world in this book. Congratulations on making book of the day!

[Harty Muli]

I like that the romance between Lara and Uri has morphed into marriage. however, they are still involved in fighting terrorism as is currently the case in this instalment of the next book in their series. Thanks for the review.

[Azubuike J Azi]

Lara and Uri's latest mission, going undercover on a Middle Eastern farm, is pure genius! Thanks for sharing this gripping review!

Married couple Lara and Uri are vacationing on their family farm when news of the Beverly Hills bomb blast calls them for duty. Both of them need to infiltrate the Federal and Chase Reserve Bank to catch suspects. This is a suspenseful action story.
