From the internationally bestselling author of The Other Woman and House of Spies comes another stunning thriller in his latest action-packed tale of high stakes international intrigue. At an exclusive private school in Switzerland, mystery surrounds the identity of the beautiful girl who arrives each morning and leaves each afternoon in a heavily protected motorcade fit for a head of state. She is said to be the daughter of a wealthy international businessman. She is not. And when she is brutally kidnapped across the border in the Haute-Savoie region of France, Gabriel Allon, the legendary chief of Israeli intelligence, is thrust into a deadly secret war with an old enemy that will determine the future of the Middle East-and perhaps the world ... Extraordinary acclaim for The Other Woman and the Gabriel Allon Series "Another jewel in the bedazzling crown of a spy-fiction master. . . . There is an even more elaborately detailed backstory than usual, and it is every bit as compelling as the tension-drenched drama slowly unspooling in the present and leading to a socko finale." Booklist (starred review)"Excellent. . . . Readers will be enthralled by both the history and the up-to-the-minute plot that Silva spins with such finesse." Publishers Weekly (starred review)"Perhaps his most enthralling novel to date. Twists, turns, and nonstop action fill every page. . . . An instant classic from Daniel Silva, whose latest masterpiece puts him firmly alongside le Carre and Forsyth as one of the greatest spy novelists of all time." The Real Book Spy"The Other Woman is one of summer’s biggest titles ... It’s not hard to see why: This story of love and betrayal ... is hard to put down." Entertainment Weekly"Silva has a knack for topically relevant novels, and The Other Woman is no exception." New York Post’s 25 Best Thrillers of the Summer"With Silva’s novels you find yourself being educated as well as being entertained. . . .
