"MossadX" is an exciting action adventure novel that takes place in the Middle East, and pits organizational corruption against a father's love for his only daughter.It begins with a funeral of an important man--you can tell by the dignitaries and officers in attendance--and then flashes thirty days into the past, as Yosh, the director of the European desk of Mossad, sets a meeting with Nili. One mistaken remark translates into a panic amidst some of the other Mossad members, and soon Nili is marked for an "accident"--she's raped and left paralyzed so that she can't reveal certain mysterious events that happened in Paris.However, her father, Eli, doesn't accept what's happened to his daughter--he sets out both to seek revenge on those who have silenced her, and to find the antidote for her paralysis. The end plot twist is especially thrilling, and the book as a whole has a good mix of bloody action, intrigue, and family ties. Eli is a compelling hero who takes extraordinary measures for his daughter, and really serves as the backbone of the book in keeping the reader's interest and moving the story forward. Recommended for those who enjoy suspense, thrillers, and books with characters you come to care about.
