Bestselling author Daniel Silva delivers another spellbinding
international thriller--one that finds the legendary Gabriel Allon
grappling with an ISIS mastermind.
Gabriel Allon, the art restorer, spy, and assassin described as the most
compelling fictional creation "since Ian Fleming put down his martini
and invented James Bond" (Rocky Mountain News), is poised to become
the chief of Israel's secret intelligence service. But on the eve of his
promotion, events conspire to lure him into the field for one final
operation. ISIS has detonated a massive bomb in the Marais district of
Paris, and a desperate French government wants Gabriel to eliminate the
man responsible before he can strike again.
Acclaimed novelist Daniel Silva has thrilled, entertained and educated
readers with eighteen thoughtful and gripping spy novels featuring a
diverse cast of compelling characters and ingenious plots that have
taken them around the globe and back--from the United States to Europe,
Russia to the Middle East. From its shocking opening to its explosive
denouement in Washington, D.C., The Black Widow reveals itself as
Silva's most timely and powerful novel yet. Following the success of his
smash hit The English Spy, this electrifying thriller showcases
Silva's consummate skill and brilliant imagination, and is sure to be a
must read for his multitude of current and future fans.
