“Allon is Israel’s Jack Bauer…Thrill factor:*****.”—USA Today
“The action moves quickly, the subject matter feels impressively
current, and Silva’s multidimensional characters seem instantly
like old friends.”—The Washington Post
“A rollicking espionage thriller.”—The Columbus Dispatch
“A compelling thriller…It would be difficult indeed to find a more
timely novel on a more urgent topic than The Secret Servant. May
there be many more novels featuring Gabriel Allon.”—Tampa
Tribune
“Harrowing international intrigue, all the more so for being so
topical.”—New York Daily News
“Nobody handles this kind of intrigue as well Silva. He gives
Gabriel and the rest of his team the kind of depth seen only in spy
novels by Robert Ludlum and Tom Clancy.”—Richmond Times Dispatch
Bestseller Silva's superlative seventh novel to feature Gabriel Allon, "the legendary but wayward son of Israeli Intelligence," puts Silva squarely atop the spy thriller heap. When Solomon Rosner, a professor in Amsterdam who's also a secret Israeli asset, is assassinated for his strident reports and articles detailing the dangers of militant Islam within the Netherlands, Gabriel gets the job to clean out the professor's files. In Amsterdam, the Israeli agent and his old partner, Eli Lavon, unearth a plot that leads to the kidnapping by Islamic extremists of the daughter of the U.S. ambassador in London. While most intelligence agencies consider Gabriel persona non grata because of his unorthodox methods and the trail of bodies he leaves in his wake, he once again proves invaluable as he and his stalwart team hunt down some of Israel's-and the world's-most violent enemies. While you don't have to have read the earlier books in the series (The Messenger, etc.), knowing the history of the returning characters adds depth and color to the overall story.
