I had been stumbling around looking for another good mystery series and I think I have found it! Gabriel Allon is a fascinating character. He is unexpected and incredibly likable. The writing is good, bits of information but not so much as you solve it too early!

Superb. When locations that stretch from Tel Aviv to Paris, London, Montreal, and Washington DC, the plot has "the Office" tracking a terrorist who wishes to disrupt the peace process. There's even a twist after the conclusion. I'm looking forward to the next book in this series.

Very solid espionage/spy novel, excited to read more from Silva.
