Daniel Silva - #1 NY Times bestselling Author, House of Spies
Join Midtown Reader for an evening with author Daniel Silva on Thursday, July 20, 7:00 pm at Temple Israel, 2215 Mahan Drive, Tallahassee. Silva will visit Tallahassee on tour for his new book House of Spies, the next installment in the #1 New York Times bestselling Gabriel Allon series.
Silva will be joined by his wife, CNN Special Correspondent Jamie Gangel. For 30 years, Gangel was the national correspondent for the Today Show. She has interviewed every living President and is known for her long format interviews and features.
House of Spies is Silva's thrilling new summer blockbuster featuring international spy, assassin and art restorer Gabriel Allon.
Silva has been called his generation's finest writer of international intrigue and one of the greatest American spy novelists ever. Compelling, passionate, haunting, brilliant: these are the words that have been used to describe his work.
A heart-stopping tale of suspense, Daniel Silvas runaway bestseller, The Black Widow, was one of 2016s biggest novels. Now, in House of Spies, the legendary Gabriel Allon is back and out for revenge determined to hunt down the worlds most dangerous terrorist, a shadowy ISIS mastermind known only as Saladin.
Four months after the deadliest attack on the American homeland since 9/11, a terrorist plot leaves a trail of carnage through Londons glittering West End. The attack is a brilliant feat of planning and secrecy, but with one loose thread.
The thread leads Gabriel Allon and his team to the south of France and to the gilded doorstep of one of the richest men in the country, Jean-Luc Martel, and his companion, Olivia Watson. A beautiful former British fashion model, Olivia pretends not to know the true source of Martels enormous wealth. And Martel, likewise, turns a blind eye to the fact he is doing business with a man whose objective is the very destruction of the West. Together, under Gabriels skilled hand, they will become an unlikely pair of heroes in the global war on terrorism.
Written in seductive and elegant prose, the story moves swiftly from the glamour of Saint-Tropez to the grit of Casablanca and, finally, to an electrifying climax that will leave readers breathless long after they turn the final page.
But House of Spies is more than just riveting entertainment; it is a dazzling tale of avarice and redemption, set against the backdrop of the great conflict of our times. And it will prove once again why Daniel Silva is quite simply the best (Kansas City Star).
