Moment to Kill

It takes a lifetime of training for just one moment-to kill or be killed.
Yariv is a covert Israeli operative turned Mossad field agent, trained to blend into the civilian population, extract his target, and get out. Now his team is hiding in plain sight, following months of careful preparations, facing their most complex, dangerous assignment yet-a high-ranking terrorist commander from the West Bank. They stalk the narrow streets of Nablus, where every corner is a threat and every window holds a potential bullet with their names on it. Then, the gunfire starts.
As tragedy and bitter failure haunt him and his brothers-in-arms, Yariv turns away from his team and his unit, trying to reconcile and put the past behind him. But when he spots a familiar face on the streets of Lyon-a face he had studied for months-Yariv gets one more shot at vengeance... and one moment to kill.
