| | | Allon is recovering from his grueling showdown with a Palestinian master terrorist, when terrorism comes to find him once again. An al-Qaeda suspect is killed in London, and photographs are found on his computer-photographs that lead Israeli intelligence to suspect that al-Qaeda is planning one of its most audacious attacks ever. To Allon, there is something terribly familiar about the information, something horrifyingly close--but even he does not realize how close. Urgently, he throws himself into the hunt, but there may simply not be enough of anything: enough time, enough facts, enough luck. An extraordinary enem walks among them..and he's just getting started.
Annotation:
Art restoration expert and occasional spy Gabriel Allon is back at work in this rip-roaring international thriller from Daniel Silva. The Vatican, al-Quaeda, and mysterious Saudi terrorist organizations all figure in the action-packed plot, along with a romantic intrigue or two.
| Praise| "What makes this series fascinating is the interplay between standard spy-thriller fare of glamorous locales..., double and triple crosses, and justified paranoia with the passionate, tragic figure of Allon himself. An engrossing and beautifully written contemporary spy thriller." (starred review) July 1, 2006 |
