I'm a great admirer of Israel and have read several non-fiction books based on that extraordinary country. I particularly love books on Israel's wars of the past and on recent Israeli entrepreneurship. But surprisingly, I'd never read a fictional account of Israel and so asked for an Israel based friend to recommend a great Israeli thriller to me. She recommended this book, 'Mossad Agent Cobra' by Dov Nardimon.I was thoroughly entertained by this action filled thriller based on the life and times of a fictional Mossad agent. I loved the back story behind Agent Cobra, how he grows up in a Kibbutz as a young boy Nisim, his determination to serve his country, his self-sacrifice and his amazing courage.Through his story, I also got to know a lot more about the history of a country that fascinates me so much, Israel. Truly, a smashing thriller and a great history lesson.
