Daniel Silva and Gabriel Allon return in another blistering, ripped-from-the-headlines thriller. 'Silva buildssuspense like a symphony conductor' Booklist Daniel Silva is the undisputed master of the contemporary spy thriller, and truly the heir to John le Carre. Each of his novels stands alone as a sophisticated page-turner that is so close to real life that it seems terrifyingly prescient. His writing is elegant and he 'manages a delicate balance betweentradecraft; interpersonal drama; and, of course, excruciating tension' (Booklist).
