A lot happens worldwide, both now and in the future, and all we can hope for is that we do not become victims of these circumstances. Because we are unaware of these negative events, some people devote their lives to combating them. East Wind: 2nd Edition by Jack Winnick is a story about how terrorists from Arab countries terrorized the country.

Uri was a member of the Metsada Special Operation arm of Mossad. He spoke Arabic fluently and was assigned the role of squad leader for Kidon, which was responsible for carrying out captures and assassinations in the neighbouring Arab countries. The existence of the Kidon has been denied at every level of the Israeli government. Uri remembered his last mission, during which their target was Hakim, known for raiding schools. He led a six-man squad to the school grounds while they were having their evening service and slaughtered both guards and children of the school, leaving a child, Yaakov, to tell the story.

The child, drenched in fear, remembered something significant about their leader: the crescent-like scar between the thumb and forefinger of his right hand. With this information, Uri remembered his childhood friend who had cut a circle on that same spot and boasted that he could endure pain. Uri had lost track of his friend Hakim in their teens, and he was sure that Hakim was the killer. Uri knew where to find Hakim across the Lebanese border, which they visited as kids. Get this book to enjoy the exciting Lara and Uri series.

This book was enjoyable because it helped me realize how little I knew about the world around me. The book's introduction was also fascinating to me. As a man, I can't imagine not loving Lara because she was hardworking, self-reliant, tech-savvy, and physically strong. Uri and Lara worked well together, and it was interesting to see how they differentiated between work and play. Jack's writing was so compelling that I could picture the message from just reading it, and the story itself could be mistaken for a simple idea. Since the Metsada agency was secret and helped root out evil, I support it. Finally, Jack deserves praise for successfully balancing the romantic elements of East Wind with the novel's more conventionally violent and criminal elements.

I didn't have any reason to dislike this book, and I recommend this book to anyone who loves to read action, romance, or books about terrorism. I encountered a few typos that needed to be corrected while reading this book, showing that East Wind: 2nd Edition by Jack Winnick was professionally edited. I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars because I enjoyed the book, especially the romantic scenes.

Your review has me excited to experience the non-stop action for myself.
I love when authors are able to weave intricate plot twists into their stories. It sounds like Jack Winnick does an excellent job of that in this book.
A reader lives a thousand lives before they die. What is more marvelous, more wholesome, more exquisite, than exploring all the worlds and universes that humanity can ever conceive?

Authors that give vivid descriptions are the best. You can easily flow with their writing style as you'd be able to picture the scenes perfectly in your head. Awesome review.

Making pain a hobby is nothing to be proud of. The book depicts a lot of violence and I really would like to find out if the perpetrators were put to justice.

The reviewer's comment about having trouble connecting with the main characters is honest and helpful. This is something that some readers may relate to, so it's good to have that perspective represented in the review.

What you said about the book being a must-read for those interested in the ongoing conflicts between the US and Middle Eastern terror organizations is important. This book could provide valuable insights for readers looking to understand those issues more deeply.

I liked the fact that the child had a sharp memory because I believe that his contribution will be part of the reason why this problem will be solved by the agents.
