Event
Daniel Silva - The Secret Servant
OPENING NIGHT....Daniel Silva, Sunday, October 28th, 7:30 PM
New York Times bestselling author Daniel Silva has been called his generation's finest writer of international intrigue, one of America's most gifted spy novelists ever, and the "new" John Le Carre. Following the electrifying number one bestseller, The Messenger, soon to be a major motion picture, Silva's latest novel has been claimed his most compelling and entertaining to date. The Secret Servant finds Gabriel Allon, master art restorer and sometime Israeli intelligence officer, summoned into service having just prevailed in a blood-soaked duel with Saudi terrorist financier Zizi al-Bakari. What appears to be a routine assignment in Amsterdam quickly turns into so much more as Allon discovers a conspiracy of terror festering in the city's Islamic underground, that is about to explode on the other side of the English Channel, in the heart of London. A former CNN foreign correpondent, Silva is an exacting researcher whose writing reflects his ability to draw on a vast network of experts in the field merging fact with fiction to create "superbly crafted" (Publishers Weekly) narratives of espionage and foreign intrigue. His Book & Arts Fair program, like his writing, will take his readers beyond the pages of his novel to greater questions and discussion about the challenging world around us.
