A well-written, action-packed international thriller novel full of suspense! I am glad it has a well-developed cast of characthers and realistic, fast-paced plot! I love international thrillers, so I just added this book to my TBR list!Plus, it is professionally edited! Thank you for the amazing, detailed review! :tiphat:

A complex book about two newly wed agents who fight a group of terrorists sounds interesting, but I don't think it's the book for me.

Based from your review, the story seems interesting which is why I am pleased that one can read this without necessarily reading the other books of the series. I might read this book one of these days. Thank you for the nice review. :D

I am never up to reading a book that lies in the middle of a series, but this book is standalone and there was enough groundbreaking sentences to summaries the prior books in the series. I found the book highly suspensful, full of realistic characters, and a probable future terrorism event. I rated the book 4 out of 4 stars, and I appreciate the inciteful review that highlighted the best the book had to offer.

Nice review.
I'm tempted to go read the book since I have a thing for FBI-related stories. We'll see.
Though the cover is kinda scary... idk why.

I'm very much like others that it is stand alone novel as I too didn't read the other book in this series. I'll definitely give it a try!

This thriller has FBI Lara and her husband, Mossad Uri, chasing terrorists. The characters are developed, the plot is exciting, and it's based on real-world events.

This thriller sounds interesting it's great that it's not related to the previous books & u can read it separately but I think it deserved a better name

A thriller book with no flaws whatsoever, sign me up. I am a fan of "partners in crime" stories, so reading this trope (but reversed) would be interesting. Plus a professionally edited book is always a yes for me. However even though you stated this book as a stand-alone, i will definitely begin with the first one.

It’s good to know this is a standalone book and can’t be read by itself. I too think it is a page turner and very exciting thanks for the great review!

I’m not really into thrillers or international politics, so I’ll pass on this one.

Can't deny I was a bit reluctant to go for this one, up until I read your great review. Will check this book out. Thanks much, Cecilia.

Thanks for the review. I haven't read any of the other books either, so I'm really glad this is a stand-alone book. The plot is great, draws me in, and from what I could see, agents we are meeting now know what they are doing.
