From Daniel Silva, the #1 New York Times-bestselling author, comes
a modern masterpiece of espionage, love, and betrayal
She was his best-kept secret ...
In an isolated village in the mountains of Andalusia, a mysterious
Frenchwoman begins work on a dangerous memoir. It is the story of a man
she once loved in the Beirut of old, and a child taken from her in
treason's name. The woman is the keeper of the Kremlin's most closely
guarded secret. Long ago, the KGB inserted a mole into the heart of the
West--a mole who stands on the doorstep of ultimate power.
Only one man can unravel the conspiracy: Gabriel Allon, the legendary
art restorer and assassin who serves as the chief of Israel's vaunted
secret intelligence service. Gabriel has battled the dark forces of the
new Russia before, at great personal cost. Now he and the Russians will
engage in a final epic showdown, with the fate of the postwar global
order hanging in the balance.
Gabriel is lured into the hunt for the traitor after his most important
asset inside Russian intelligence is brutally assassinated while trying
to defect in Vienna. His quest for the truth will lead him backward in
time, to the twentieth century's greatest act of treason, and, finally,
to a spellbinding climax along the banks of the Potomac River outside
Washington that will leave readers breathless.
Fast as a bullet, hauntingly beautiful, and filled with stunning
double-crosses and twists of plot, The Other Woman is a tour de force
that proves once again that "of all those writing spy novels today,
Daniel Silva is quite simply the best" (Kansas City Star).
