The Secret Servant by Daniel Silva

3.0

Daniel Silva's series featuring Gabriel Allon, the Mossad assassin with the art restorer cover, is classy junk food. Quick, tasty at the moment, consistent, and not at all nourishing. Silva has the formula down, he's up to date on the war on terror as it pertains to Israel in particular , and Europe and the US in general; his characters are interesting (but static,) and the books are thriller-dillers. The Secret Servant is a quick read, perfect for a weekend or an airplane, and almost instantly forgettable.
