Daniel Silva knows how to write a gripping revenge novel. In The English Spy (#546), art restorer and soon-to-be chief of Israeli Intelligence Gabriel Allon is back, with more at stake than ever.
When a popular British Royal dies while on a Mediterranean cruise it's not clear whether her death was an accident or an assassination. When it proves to be murder, the question becomes "Who paid the assassin?" There are a number of leads pointing in opposite directions until he is tentatively identified as an old nemesis of British Intelligence from the IRA, legendary bomber Eamon Quinn. But was the killing of the Princess the end game, or is it only the start of a cat and mouse game involving Gabriel Allon and his sometime partner Christopher Keller?
This is a good book to curl up with on a cold winter's day. The twists will keep you guessing until the very end.
