A review by carrolk3
The Secret Servant by Daniel Silva

4.0

I really found this book interesting. I have read a couple other Daniel Silva books and enjoyed them but this one was one of the best. The plot line - kidnapping of the daughter of the American ambassador to England by terrorist group and the attempted recovery involving Gabriel Allon, an Israeli "operative" was quite well done. It was also especially interesting to me as there was a lot of background information about Egypt's political history and the issues of European terrorists. We will be traveling to Egypt this coming winter and each piece of background information I can obtain will only help me to understand the complexities of the country we will be visiting...
