A review by maniereads
The Secret Servant by Daniel Silva
3.0
After reading five of these novels, I can clearly discern a pattern in the plot lines.
Step A: Huge disaster.
Step B: Call brilliant main character to solver problem.
Step C: Team building montage.
Step D: Someone gets kidnapped/tortured.
Step E: Good guys make a horrible, amateur mistake.
Step F: Good guys win, killing a ton of people.
Step G: A few small vignettes explaining the covert operations tying up loose ends, which can include a wedding, the sale of a famous painting, a sniper hit, or most commonly, blowing something up.
The end.
